Abstract in brief

Red blood cell transfusions are crucial for managing sickle cell disease (SCD), but they come with significant challenges that require careful management and guidance.
The American Society of Hematology established evidence-based guidelines through a multidisciplinary panel, focusing on key issues related to transfusion support and complications in SCD.
The panel made 10 recommendations regarding blood typing, matching, administration methods, and management strategies, highlighting the need for further research to fill gaps in high-certainty evidence on transfusion practices.

Red cell transfusions, given to increase hemoglobin, can actually decrease it (negative increment) in those who develop hyperhemolysis Occurs classically (and tragically) in sickle cell disease patients, but can happen to anyone https://t.co/zk91PjciFS https://t.co/ZZv9FMGDvG

@PTMcGann @drzsicklecell Sickle Cell Disease is very important to me. I have experienced tremendous challenges w/in the health care system to get patients the care they need,remove barriers & stigmatization. SCD patients need a team of advocates. My role is TransfusionMedicine!

La respuesta correcta es TRANSFUSIÓN SIMPLE hasta una Hb ≈10 g/dl, frente al recambio, que sería la opción preferible si Hb actual >9 g/dl. No evidencia de que el RE sea mejor y, sin embargo, en un ensayo se asoció a más complicaciones transfusionales. https://t.co/PsDm4XoHo9 https://t.co/61ctmKIB8N

There is a lack of data about red cell exchange (RCE) vs simple transfusion in treating moderate/severe acute chest syndrome in #sicklecell. @ASH_hematology 2020 guidelines do, however, recommend RCE in ACS with rapidly dropping Hgb or severe hypoxia. https://t.co/OiMg5gdIOf 8/
