Impact of Isovolemic Hemodilution‐Red Cell Exchange on Health‐Related Quality of Life in Patients With Sickle Cell Disease: A Pilot Study

Journal of Clinical Apheresis, Volume 41, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) negatively affects health‐related quality of life (HRQoL). Isovolemic hemodilution (IHD) red‐cell exchange (RCE) is being increasingly used to treat SCD‐related complications, but its impact on HRQoL has not been characterized.
