ASH SCD Guidelines: Cerebrovascular Disease
In 2016, ASH initiated an effort to develop clinical practice guidelines on Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). These guidelines are part of a series of five guidelines ASH is developing on SCD to provide updated treatment guidelines that reflect the newest evidence about the disease, ensuring the medical community can better treat SCD and people with SCD can make the best decisions for their care.
