Background: Pain management in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) can be challenging for emergency physicians (EPs). Current emergency department (ED) recommendations for pain management in patients with SCD include rapid triage and pain control with intravenous opioids, followed by other adjunctive modes of analgesia. Regional anesthesia is recommended as a possible adjunct treatment option, but is generally performed later in the hospital course rather than in the ED.
