Official title

Assessment of Pain in Transfusion Dependent Patients With Thalassemia During Transfusion Cycles

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Thalassemia is an inherited blood disorder that can result in mild to severe anemia. Regular blood transfusions, which refresh the healthy red blood cell supply, are one treatment for thalassemia. People with thalassemia often experience pain, but the exact source of pain remains unknown. This study will examine how pain varies during the blood transfusion cycle in people with thalassemia who are treated with regular blood transfusions.
