About this trial
Sickle cell disease is characterized by chronic hemolytic anemia and blood rheological alterations. In addition, blood coagulation abnormalities have been reported in patients with sickle cell disease and hemolysis-derived products could be involved. The investigators hypothesized that patients with sickle cell disease and severe hemolysis (Lactate Dehydrogenase level \> 484 IU/L) could have an increased risk of hypercoagulable state and subsequent thromboembolic complications.
