Abstract: | BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to determine cost of care for leg ulcers in sickle cell patients and suggest an improved modality in ulcer care. STUDY DESIGN: We performed a retrospective study of a group of sickle cell disease patients with leg ulcers. RESULTS: Eighteen patients with a leg ulcer (duration: mean, 53.7 months), sickle cell disease, and a mean of 20.7 years of age had various modalities of treatment with the only consistency in healing being a commercial moist-wound dressing. CONCLUSIONS: There is no consistency in the treatment of the sickle cell patient with a leg ulcer. Treatment with a moist dressing had the best results. |
