Sickle Cell Disease Appropriateness in Access to Automated Red Blood Cell

The Sickle Cell Society and the Haemoglobinopathy Coordination Centres have recently distributed a survey to sickle cell patients to ask their views on the provision of Automated Red Blood Cell Exchange, whether it is acceptable and whether it was available to those patients requiring treatment. Now that the questionnaires have been completed and analysed, we would like to invite you to take part in a webinar, where we will discuss the findings of the survey.

Agenda
We will facilitate a lot of discussions around key topic areas such as:
Informed decision making and talking to clinicians
Out of hours care for Sickle Cell
Travel and transport arrangements
Barriers in attending treatment: pain, fatigue and the waiting
Pain relief: the wait, under prescribing and overdose
Please join us on the day to take part in these important discussions which will help inform the provision of services.

This webinar will be of interest to:

Sickle cell society members
Key contacts within NHS England
Key contacts within the Haemoglobinopathy Coordination Centre Network
AHSN Spectra Optia Leads
Spectra Optia National Working Group Members (NHS Blood and Transplant clinical leads and Terumo)
