Protocol - Sickle Cell Disease Pain Location Body Map - Adult

Add to My Toolkit
Description

The Sickle Cell Disease Pain Location Body Map - Adult protocol is one question from a wider self-administered pain diary that is completed daily. This protocol is used to record the previous days level of sickle cell disease (SCD)-related pain. Additionally, the wider Sickle Cell Pain Diary captures data about an individuals medication use, responses to pain, and SCD-related disability and distress. This protocol was validated in individuals aged 16 years and older.

Specific Instructions

The PISCES Body Map is useful for capturing acute sickle cell disease pain during the past 24 hours. The Michigan Body Map is more relevant for general populations to assess persistent or recurrent pain over the last 3 months.

Definition

This measure assesses the number and location of sites on the body where pain symptoms are felt.

Purpose

The number and location of pain sites vary significantly by age, frequency of pain, crisis, and utilization. Pain location can predict important behavioral outcomes, number of days where an individual experiences subjective vaso-occlusive crises, and unplanned utilization of hospitals.
