Practice Patterns in the Use of MRI/MRA and Chronic Transfusion Therapy for Monitoring and Treatment of Stroke in Pediatric Patients with Sickle Cell Anemia
Conclusions: The results of the DISPLACE practice patterns survey suggested nearly universal adoption of CRCT for children with abnormal TCD and prior overt stroke across sites. The use of MRI/MRA in detecting potential cerebrovascular abnormalities in the absence of clinical neurologic symptoms and for monitoring patients on CRCT was much more variable, which likely reflects the minimal amount of guidance for the use of MRI/MRA in SCA. Notably, a number of sites were using MRI/MRA to screen pediatric patients for cerebrovascular abnormalities and to monitor patients on CRCT. The variability in responses for MRI/MRA highli...

Primary stroke prevention in children with sickle cell anemia living in africa: the false choice between patient-oriented research and humanitarian service-part ii
Trans Am Clin Climatol Assoc. 2022;132:236-248.ABSTRACTIn the United States, primary stroke prevention in children with sickle cell anemia (SCA) is the standard of care and includes annual transcranial Doppler ultrasound to detect elevated velocities. For children with velocities ≥200 cm/sec, initial monthly blood transfusion therapy for at least a year, followed by the option of hydroxyurea therapy, results in a significant decline in the stroke rate. In Africa, no prior strategy exists for primary stroke prevention because regular blood transfusion therapy is not feasible. We completed a randomized controlled trial for...
