Different Types of Hemoglobin Cause Sickle Cell Disease
www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/health-topics/topics/sca
Sickle hemoglobin (HbS) causes the red blood cells to stick inside narrow blood vessels, thus blocking blood flow and oxygen supply
Normal hemoglobin (HbA) allows the red blood cells to flex and flow through narrow blood vessels without getting stuck
Different types of hemoglobin (i.e., hemoglobin variants) affect how red blood cells (RBC) function ● The type of hemoglobin inherited through our genes determines whether a person
has sickle cell disease and the type of sickle cell disease

Types of Hemoglobin and Sickle Cell Disease, Sickle Cell Anemia and Sickle Cell Trait
“Sickle cell disease” has different combinations ofhemoglobin variants● Hemoglobin S/S or “sickle cell anemia”
● Hemoglobin S/b0 thalassemia
● Hemoglobin S/C
● Hemoglobin S/b+ thalassemia
“Sickle cell trait” is when one sickle gene is present● Individuals with trait typically do not have any symptoms
● Two parents with trait may have a child with sickle cell disease
● Genetic counseling, including awareness of trait status, is important

Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) Throughout The World
Piel FB, Hay SI, Gupta S, et al. PLoS Med. 2013;10(7)
Worldwide about 300,000 annual births● 79% infants born with sickle cell occur in sub-Saharan Africa
Mortality is associated with access to prevention and health care ● In the U.S., over 95% of children with SCD live past the age of 18
● In low-income and middle-income countries, about 90% of childrendie before the age of 5
Access to public health infrastructure, universal screening programs, and specific medical interventions could lower global mortality
![Page 6: CDC PUBLIC HEALTH GRAND ROUNDS · 2016-11-15 · Anemia Control Act passed Helped found the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America . 17 Dramatic Improvement for Children Given](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041704/5e439cb6cdcd6127d0360b49/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

What Are Symptoms and Outcomes of Sickle Cell Disease?
When blood flow is blocked, sudden and severe pain arises● Episodes are called “sickle cell crises” or “pain crises”
Sickle cell crises can be life threatening● In the brain, can cause strokes
● In the lungs, can cause acute chest syndrome
Sickle cell disease can cause chronic organ damage● In the spleen, impairs immune function
● In the bones, can result in avascular necrosis
● In the kidneys, can result in chronic renal failure
Severity and lifelong impact of sickle cell disease is difficult to predict

Understanding Who Has Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) Is Important To Improving Outcomes
Hassell, KL. Am J Prev Med. 2010 Apr;38(4 Suppl):S512-21
Sickle cell disease can be life-threatening even at young ages
Newborn screening for SCD in all 50 states● 1,500–2,000 babies are
identified each year
Approximately 100,000 Americans are affected● No national registries to
understand how to improve outcomes
Estimated Number of Individuals per State
Distribution of Individuals with SCD in United States, 2008

Historical Perspective
Sickle cell disease is an inherited hemoglobinopathy
Characterized by hemolysis, vascular occlusion
Unpredictable clinical complications such as acute pain, life-threatening infection, stroke and acute chest syndrome (i.e., pneumonia-like illness)
In 1971, Sickle Cell Disease Association of America formed
In 1972, the National Sickle Cell Anemia Control Act passed Helped found the Sickle Cell Disease
Association of America

Penicillin Prophylaxis BreakthroughLent Urgency to Newborn Screening
Infection prophylaxis meant infants with SCD needed to be identified early
Newborn screening● Universal screening recommended
by NIH in 1987
● State-by-state adoption of screening
● By 2006, all states screening at birth
Specialized vaccine programs● Pneumococcal vaccines developed

Transfusion Therapy for Primary Stroke Preventionin SCD STOP Trial
Adams RJ, McKie VC, Hsu L, et al. N Engl J Med. 1998 Jul 2;339(1):5-11
Background● Chronic red blood cell transfusions reduce recurrent stroke rate in
children with SCD
● Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD) detects children at risk for stroke
Hypothesis: Could children who have increased risk of stroke be helped by transfusions before a stroke occurs?
![Page 21: CDC PUBLIC HEALTH GRAND ROUNDS · 2016-11-15 · Anemia Control Act passed Helped found the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America . 17 Dramatic Improvement for Children Given](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041704/5e439cb6cdcd6127d0360b49/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Limitations of the Sickle Cell Data Collection (SCDC) System
Whole population data can provide important information, but results must be interpreted with caution
SCDC does not distinguish type of sickle cell disease for each person● Type of hemoglobin can affect course of sickle cell disease
Significant differences in premature death related to type of sickle cell disease● Overestimates lifespan in more severe types
● Underestimates lifespan in milder types

Limitations of the Sickle Cell Data Collection (SCDC) System
Not all interventions are applied to all forms of sickle cell disease● Hydroxyurea is of proven benefit in HbSS
and HbSβothalassemia
● 40% of people have other types of sickle cell disease and thus would not be given this intervention
May miss important gains in care and outcomes made within a given subset

Sickle Cell Data Collection (SCDC): Clarifying the Course of Disease
Longitudinal tracking● Onset and progression of complications
● Use and impact of complication-specific and overall disease-modifying therapy
Limitation: SCDC does not distinguish type of sickle cell disease● Rate and severity of complications varies
between types of sickle cell disease
● Some disease-modifying therapies (e.g., hydroxyurea) are used only for some types of sickle cell disease (HbSS and HbSβothalassemia)
![Page 47: CDC PUBLIC HEALTH GRAND ROUNDS · 2016-11-15 · Anemia Control Act passed Helped found the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America . 17 Dramatic Improvement for Children Given](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041704/5e439cb6cdcd6127d0360b49/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

Adult Healthcare Access and Utilization
Bundy DG, Muschelli J, Clemens GD, et al. Pediatr Blood Cancer. 2012 Nov;59(5):888-94
Oft-stated assumption is that all children with sickle cell disease receive comprehensive sickle cell care from sickle cell providers● Maryland Medicaid data: 38% of children had not seen a hematologist by age 2
Adult health care is often characterized as nonexistent, inaccessible, or rendered by providers without knowledge or interest● Mostly based on anecdote, not data
● Increase in complications, ED utilization, mortality in early adulthood said to be evidence for this, but data suggest change actually occurs in adolescence

Insurance Is Not the Same as Access
Few adults with sickle cell disease are truly uninsured (<5%), but:● May not cover necessary services
● Limited or no access to expert providers
● High-deductible plans may preclude use
Intermittent loss of coverage● Loss of employment – lose employer-based plans
● Gain of employment – no longer eligible for Medicaid, Medicare, or disability coverage

Opportunities and Limitations of Sickle Cell Data Collection
Identify sites of care and use during the critical period of adolescence and young adulthood● Observe disease course while still in
pediatric care, without change in provider
However, lack of use may not mean lack of access● Data regarding referrals, arranged transfers
and scheduled appointments that were not kept are not captured

What Do We Need Now?
Health care policy strategies are needed to fully realize benefits of basic and clinical science advancements for sickle cell disease (SCD)
Strategies must align with current priorities in reforming health care system
Policy solutions in SCD should be patient-centered, provider-centered, and health system-oriented

Improving the Lives of People with Sickle Cell Disease
Continue progress in advancing care ● Translating research into treatment and practice
Use data to identify gaps in care● Variability in disease course and management
● Availability, use, and access to care
● Transitions from pediatric to adult care, and for adult care
Need more support to meet healthcare needs● Connect people to care
● Understand better which care is best for each individual
● Better systems to provide patient-centered care
