Clinical Trial Summary

Background: Sickle cell disorder (SCD), the commonest genetic (faulty gene inherited from both parents) condition in the UK, affects mainly underserved groups. Babies with SCD must start treatments soon after birth to prevent them becoming unwell. Stigma, fear and inequalities can make it difficult for parents to accept their child's diagnosis and access appropriate treatment and support. Aim: Develop strategies to improve support for parents during their child's first year of life following a SCD diagnosis to encourage early engagement with health services. Method: Comprises two stages: (i) Determine why parents choose to engage with support or not (ii) Use this information to co-design strategies to ensure greater accessibility of support for parents during their child's first year of life. Patient and Public Involvement: We are working with Sickle Cell Society and parents of children with SCD. Dissemination: Findings will be shared with support groups, charities, health professionals and academics.
