Hi, student here, found the video really helpful. I just wanted to confirm the lifelong use of prophylactic penicillin in those with sickle cell? So in practice, most adults with sickle cell should be presenting with penicillin in their medication history/current meds?

I was always told to answer salmonella for any question referring to osteomyelitis and sickle cell dz, first I've heard it otherwise.

[@simbotta1118]

+TheMobster450 Same, in all my school exams and USMLE WORLD qbanks for STEP1 and 2, its Salmonella. Only in my clerkships did i hear otherwise

[@TheMobster450]

+Sim Botta ok good thanks for responding. I'm glad I'm not alone here

[@stephaniewesley8051]

Same here! Looked it up on UpToDate to try to find clarification:
"Staphylococcus aureus, the most common cause of osteomyelitis in individuals without SCD, accounts for only one-fourth of all cases in SCD" (www.uptodate.com/contents/bone-and-joint-complications-in-sickle-cell-disease?source=machineLearning&search=osteomyelitis+sickle&selectedTitle=1~150§ionRank=1&anchor=H12#H12)
"We conclude that Salmonella is the most common cause of osteomyelitis in patients with SCD, both in developing countries and in developed countries, and that its relative incidence is more than twice that of S aureus." (pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/101/2/296.long)

[@miyukishouse4647]

you are right. Salmonella is the most common cause of osteomyelitis . williams.medicine.wisc.edu/sicklebone.pdf

Please what do one do at home before going to Hospital when having heartburn or chest pain for someone having sickle cell ?

[@aliciamilam5636]

Stop drinking milk it make blood latic acid state..n dandelions out the yard raise hemoglobins..red seeded grapes raise fetal haemoglobin

[@AbbasKhan-lq5ec]

Sir.... For our knowledge, would you say a few words about..
1) The role of aspirin or other anti_platelets drugs in managing a stroke due to Sickle cell anemia ?
2) The effect of sickle cell anemia on platelets ?
