Definition
Sickle Cell Disorder is a chronic inherited
genetic blood condition in which carriers
have an abnormal type of haemoglobin
(HbS) which affects how the blood is flowing
in the body compared to normal
haemoglobin (HbA) (WHO).
•A new discovery of the 20th century.
•First recorded in 1910 by James Bryan
Herrick, an American cardiologist and a major
figure in the history of medical science (Haller
et al., 2001).
•Herrick’s syndrome until 1922 when
doctor V. Mason named the diseases as
“sickle-cell anaemia” based on the
description of Ernest Irons, a medical doctor
at the Presbyterian Hospital in Chicago.
• In England 1 in every 2000 new birth has
SCD.
•SCD is prevalent in Africa with at least 40
countries in which it varies between 2% and 30%
(WHO, 2011).
•Country such as Cameroon, Republic of Congo,
Gabon, Ghana and Nigeria, the prevalence is
between 20% and 30% while in some parts of
Uganda it is as high as 45% (WHO, 2012).
•Despite the prevalence of the disease, little is
done in these countries due to the governments’
lack of adequate health initiatives (WHO, 2011).
• Target population: Young people at schools
age range from 4 to 25 years.
• Duration: Three years (2006-2009)
• Location: England, UK
• Sponsor: The Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) Grant RES-000–23–1486

• To describe the perceptions held by those living
with SCD in England of their educational
experiences.
• To map the range and frequency of key factors
reported to affect the educational experiences of
those living with SCD.

context that constitute barriers and supportive
mechanisms for young people with SCD?

planPain crisis
• Experience of a young student with sickle cell pain in school http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKgWA4N6lls
• Nicholas H. and his mother, Bridget, talk about life
with sickle cell disease. Nicholas was diagnosed with
sickle cell disease soon after he was born. He
suffered from hand-feet syndrome as a baby and had
his gallbladder and spleen removed at age 5.
Penicillin, hydroxyurea and other medicines have
helped him and his family manage the illness and the
severe pain crises that can result in hospitalization.
Now 15 and an honour student in school, Nicholas
enjoys "hanging out," listening to music, playing
video games, wrestling and learning Brazilian jujitsu.
