Specialty care for children with sickle cell disease (SCD) may be disrupted during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Our DISPLACE consortium includes 28 pediatric SCD centers. In May 2020, we surveyed the consortium on impact of COVID-19 on their practice focusing on Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD), chronic red cell transfusions (CRCT), telehealth, and COVID-19 testing. Twenty-four DISPLACE providers completed the survey. TCD screening decreased to 67% but CRCT remained at 96%. Most investigators (92%) used telehealth and 40% of providers had patients test positive for COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected routine care and necessitated changes in practice in SCD.
