What if we told you that women with sickle cell disease face astonishingly high risks during pregnancy, and that race, bias, and access disparities play a huge role in their maternal health? Join us as we uncover these alarming statistics with the help of our esteemed guest, Professor Lewis L HSu, MD, PhD, Professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and the Chief Medical Officer of the Sickle Cell Disease Association of America. We'll discuss the urgent need for improved transition practices for adolescents and young adults with sickle cell disease, and the crucial role of community health workers in spreading vital information.
Not only will we investigate the impacts of sickle cell disease on maternal health, but we'll also delve into the significance of genetic diagnosis and raising awareness for this debilitating condition. Discover the intricacies of pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, the annual Global Sickle Cell Awareness Day, and the spicy world of Nigerian cuisine. Learn from Professor Sue's expertise as we navigate the challenges faced by healthcare providers in keeping up with advancements in sickle cell disease treatment, and explore how trust and information can improve the lives of those living with this genetic condition. Don't miss this insightful conversation that could help change the future of maternal health outcomes for individuals with sickle cell disease.
