Study Summary

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.

Primary Outcome

Subjects reported whether or not they had pain (yes/no) during each transfusion cycle (data on up to 3 transfusion cycles were collected for each subject). The percent of subject-cycles with pain was calculated for the quartiles of the transfusion cycle.
