The #SickleCell community lost an amazing advocate, #SickleCellWarrior, and researcher of bioethics. This is a tremendous loss for the community as Dr. Haywood strived to #ConquerSCD in both his career & life. I send my sincerest condolences to his family & coworkers.
#ASH21 review of the guidelines for treatment of #sicklecell. Patients in a pain crisis need to receive tailored treatment. This is why I work with my patients to develop a plan for what works best FOR THEM. If you want to know what works best for your patients, ask them!
