People with SCD have abnormal hemoglobin called hemoglobin S or sickle hemoglobin in their RBCs. Many children with SCD die before age of 5 years due to low level of hemoglobin and infections.

Implication of the study: To improve my knowledge on diagnosis and comprehensive management of SCD as is a major health problem in our society. | ||
