    Abstract People with sickle cell disease (SCD) are living longer than ever before, with the median survival increasing from age 14 years in 1973, beyond age 40 years in the 1990s, and as high as 61 years in recent cohorts from academic centers. Improvements in survival have been attributed to initiatives, such as newborn screening, penicillin prophylaxis, vaccination against encapsulated organisms, better detection and treatment of splenic sequestration, and improved transfusion support. There are an estimated 100,000 people living with SCD in the United States and millions of people with SCD globally. Given that the number of older adults with SCD will likely continue to increase as survival improves, better evidence on how to manage this population is needed. When managing older adults with SCD (defined herein as age ≥ 40 years), healthcare providers should consider the potential pitfalls of extrapolating evidence from existing studies on current and emerging therapies that have typically been conducted with participants at mean ages far below 40 years. Older adults with SCD have historically had little to no representation in clinical trials; therefore, more guidance is needed on how to use current and emerging therapies in this population. This article summarizes the available evidence for managing older adults with SCD and discusses potential challenges to using approved and emerging drugs in this population.

    Abstract Background: Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a genetic disorder that causes physical and cognitive impairment due to hemolysis, painful vaso-occlusion episodes, joint avascular necrosis, and strokes. As individuals with SCD age and develop conditions impacting their physical and cognitive function, their ability to multitask successfully and safely may decline. Cognitive-motor dual-task interference occurs when there is deterioration in one or both tasks while dual-tasking relative to single-tasking. Dual-task assessment (DTA) is a valuable measure of physical and cognitive function; however, there is limited data on DTA in adults with SCD.
    Research question: Is DTA a feasible and safe method of measuring physical and cognitive function in adults with SCD? What patterns of cognitive-motor interference occur in adults with SCD?
    Methods: We enrolled 40 adults with SCD (mean age 44 years, range 20-71) in a single-center prospective cohort study. We used usual gait speed as the measure of motor performance and verbal fluency (F, A, and S) as the measure of cognitive performance. We measured feasibility as the proportion of consented participants able to complete the DTA. We calculated the relative dual-task effect (DTE %) for each task and identified patterns of dual-task interference.
    Results: Most consented participants completed the DTA (91%, 40/44) and there were no adverse events. There were 3 main dual-task interference patterns for the first trial using letter 'A': Motor Interference (53%, n = 21), Mutual Interference (23%, n = 9), and Cognitive-Priority Tradeoff (15%, n = 6). For the second trial using letter 'S', there were two main dual-task interference patterns: Cognitive-Priority Tradeoff (53%, n = 21) and Motor Interference (25%, n = 10).
    Statement of significance: DTA was feasible and safe in adults with SCD. We identified specific patterns of cognitive-motor interference. This study supports further evaluation of DTA as a potentially useful tool to measure physical and cognitive function in ambulatory adults with SCD.

    Abstract The life-limiting and unpredictable nature of sickle cell disease (SCD) is well-established, yet there is limited literature on end-of-life planning. The purpose of this study was to describe perspectives about preparing for death for older adults with SCD. We enrolled 19 older adults with SCD (age ≥ 50 years) into this qualitative descriptive study. Theme 1 was "anticipation of early death," with sub-themes: (a) informed of early death and (b) making plans for death. Theme 2 was "near death experiences." Theme 3 was "differences in level of comfort with death" with subthemes: (a) death as a part of life and (b) differences in level of comfort discussing death. Theme 4 was "influence of spirituality" with subthemes: (a) God controls the timing of death and (b) belief in the afterlife. These results will inform interventions to improve the quality of patient-provider communication to provide goal-concordant end-of-life care for adults with SCD.
