-
Low-dose ketamine for sickle cell vaso-occlusive pain in children and young adults
This trial will test whether adding a low (sub-dissociative) dose ketamine infusion to usual IV opioid pain medicine helps children and young adults (ages 5–20) with sickle cell disease have better pain relief and remain safe during a vaso-occlusive episode.
-
Morphine removal and kidney filtering in adults with sickle cell crises in intensive care
This project will test how quickly morphine is cleared from the body in adults with sickle cell disease admitted to intensive care for vaso-occlusive crisis or acute chest syndrome, and whether faster kidney filtering leads to lower morphine levels.
-
Regional anesthesia to reduce inflammation during vaso‑occlusive crises in sickle cell disease
This project will test whether giving regional (loco‑regional) anesthesia to adults hospitalized for sickle cell vaso‑occlusive crises reduces inflammatory markers and speeds recovery compared with usual care.
