We conducted a retrospective study on newborns with sickle-cell disease (SCD), born 1995-2009, followed in a multicentre hospital-based network. We assessed patient outcomes, medical care and compliance with the national guidelines published in December 2005. Data from 1033 patients (742 SS/S degrees-thalassaemia) with 6776 patient-years of follow-up were analysed (mean age 71 +/- 39years). SCD-related deaths (n=13) occurred only in SS-genotype patients at a median age of 231months, mainly due to acute anaemia (n=5, including 2 acute splenic sequestrations) and infection (n=3). Treatment non-compliance was associated with a 10-fold higher risk of SCD-related death (P=001). Therapeutic intensification was provided for all stroke patients (n=12), almost all patients with abnormal transcranial Doppler (TCD) (n=76) or with >1acute chest syndrome/lifetime (n=64) and/or 3 severe vaso-occlusive crises/year (n=100). Only 2/3 of patients with baseline haemoglobin
