The goal of this study is to specify the interventions, implementation strategies and control conditions from the Sickle Cell Disease Implementation Consortium (SCDIC) using a mixed-methods approach to study site materials and conduct semi-structured qualitative interviews with site representatives (N=3 per site). We focused on the Emergency Department Working Group from the SCDIC working groups.
The long-term goal of this line of research is to identify the most effective components of SCD interventions while also identifying effective implementation strategies informed by a systematic and rigorous work done by the members of the SCDIC consortium to improve the quality of life of people with SCD, a life-threatening hematological disorder. This study aims to collect detailed information about the planned interventions, the implementation strategies and the control conditions from each site.
