Abstract:

Children and adolescents and young adults (CAYAs) with sickle cell disease (SCD) suffer from recurrent acute pain episodes that result in hospitalization and confer substantial morbidity. Pharmacologic pain control is often inadequate, thus non-pharmacologic modalities are needed. Osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) is a potentially valuable non-pharmacologic addition to pain management. We describe eight patients hospitalized with SCD pain who received OMT. OMT was safe, feasible, and a promising adjunctive option for management of SCD pain.
