About
Adolescents and young adults with sickle cell disease (SCD) face challenges managing their illness and maintaining their well-being. This study proposes to test the feasibility and acceptability of a resilience-promoting intervention through a Collaborative Care Model. The primary goal is to determine with the resilience intervention (PRISM) is feasible and acceptable for adolescents and young adults with SCD. Exploratory outcomes include whether this intervention improves depression, anxiety, and pain interference.
Full description
Adolescents and Young Adults (AYAs) with blood disorders are at risk for poor physical, psychological, and social outcomes. Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) is a life-limiting condition, defined as a group of inherited red blood cell disorders disproportionally affecting non-Hispanic Black, African American, and Hispanic/Latino groups. AYAs with SCD experience racial bias, disease-related stigma, and under-treated symptoms, all of which translate to additional challenges managing their illness and maintaining their well-being. This study proposes to address the gaps of mental health support for youth with SCD through delivery of a resilience-promoting intervention (PRISM) using a Collaborative Care Model (CoCM). The primary objective of this study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of a collaborative care model to sustainably deliver the PRISM intervention for AYAs with SCD. Leveraging successful strategies implemented for patients with cancer, we will pilot-test this approach with N=25 AYAs in the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute/Boston Children's hospital (DFCI/BCH) SCD clinic. The primary outcome of interest is feasibility, defined as >50% enrollment. Secondary outcomes include patient reported outcomes of feasibility, acceptability, and satisfaction. Exploratory outcomes include assessment of depression, anxiety, and pain interference. We hypothesize this will be feasible and acceptable in this patient population.
