Transcranial Doppler Ultrasound Velocity Measurements in Children With Sickle Cell Disease in Kenya

eJHaem, Volume 7, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is the most common inherited haemoglobinopathy and poses a high public health burden in Sub‐Saharan Africa. Children with sickle cell anaemia are at a highrisk of ischemic stroke, and transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasonography helps identify those at highest risk for primary stroke prevention.
