Steroid Injection for Sickle Cell Arthropathy Pain Therapy

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is associated with arthropathy. Arthropathy may require periarticular corticosteroid injection therapy. This observational study examines efficacy, and safety of steroid injections in SCD patients. Data collection includes patient's gender, age, race, smoking history, alcohol intake, analgesic use, pain score, sleep quality, limb joint injections, post-injection analgesia, and post-injection complication. Pain is measured using numeric pain scale. Sleep quality is measured using Likert scale.

Clinical Trial Description

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is associated with arthropathy. Arthropathy causes pain which may require periarticular corticosteroid injection therapy. There is inadequate data about the suitability of steroid therapy in SCD patients. This prospective observational study examines the efficacy, and safety of periarticular steroid injections in SCD patients. This is a cohort study of adult patients undergoing pain management at a pain clinic in Canada. Data collection includes patient's gender, age, race, smoking history, alcohol intake, analgesic usage, numeric pain score, sleep quality score, limb joint injections, post-injection analgesia, and post-injection complication. Pain is measured using numeric pain rating scale. Sleep quality is measured using the Likert Sleep scale. A change in the pain or sleep scores by 2-points is considered significant. Data are analyzed with IBM® SPSS® Statistics 25; using Student's t-test, ANOVA, Pearson Chi-square test, and regression analysis. P-value <0.05 is considered significant. ;
