Management of Refractory Pain in Hospitalized Adolescents With Sickle Cell Disease

Abstract: Continuous epidural analgesia is an alternative to continuing intravenous opioids in sickle cell disease patients with refractory pain, and may reduce opioid-related side effects and facilitate transition to oral analgesics.

“…Studies have demonstrated reduced pain and opioid utiliza-tion in individuals who received adjuvant ketamine infusions 6 or regional anesthesia (ie, epidural). 7 Feasibility, however, is limited to centers that have the appropriate experience and expertise with these interventions. Recommendation 5.…”

“…Therefore, PES at a sensory threshold associated with anodic tDCS produces a summing analgesic effect. For example, Boggio 15 experienced a decrease in pain intensity by 36.5% with the two techniques' union, when tDCS alone resulted in only a 15% decrease in pain.…”

“…Studies show that tDCS alone has a moderate (20-40%) effect on pain control 14 ; however, it has been proposed as an association of techniques to increase this effect 15 . These therapeutic associations assume that brain responsiveness to a particular therapy can be facilitated by another that alters cortical excitability.…”

“…9 Thoracic epidural analgesia has been successfully used for SCD-related pain management in acute chest syndrome (ACS). 10,11 However, the use of CPNB for extremity VOCs in this patient population has only been described in a few case reports. 12,13 This is the first case series to highlight uniform CPNB pain management for three patients with upper-extremity VOCs.…”
