Study Summary

The investigators propose that culturally aligned community-based interventions in our multi-ethnic sickle cell disease (SCD) population, augmented by task-focused communication technology, can improve self-managed adherence to hydroxyurea (HU) by decreasing barriers to use, supporting parent-youth partnerships for chronic disease self-management and reinforcing the behavior of daily medication use. Culturally aligned community health workers (CHW) are a well-established means to support chronic disease self-management by underserved families, in partnership with medical homes. CHWs can identify and address multiple barriers and reinforce developmentally appropriate self-management to help youth reach and maintain their best fetal hemoglobin (HbF) levels. However, this strategy alone may be insufficient to achieve daily HU adherence. The investigators therefore propose a feasibility trial to test the feasibility and acceptability of a structured intervention of CHW support to address existing barriers to improve HU use, augmented by daily cue-based parent and youth text message reminders, to efficiently extend CHW family support and reinforce family partnerships for self-management.
