We reviewed an additional 47 studies addressing barriers to the treatment of patients with sickle cell disease and interventions to overcome these barriers. In our review of barriers to adequate pain management, we found two factors that were identified as a barrier in more than two studies: negative provider attitudes and poor provider knowledge. Because of the quantity and consistency of these findings, we concluded that the evidence was high-grade that negative provider attitudes are barriers and moderate-grade that poor provider knowledge is a barrier to the use of pain medications in patients with sickle cell disease.

Medical treatments help to control many others but schools and child care centers must continue to play an important role in controlling the spread of communicable disease. By enforcing the state communicable disease regulations excluding children who are ill and promptly reporting all suspected cases of communicable disease personnel working with children can help ensure the good health of the children in their care. Be alert for signs of illness such as elevated temperature skin rashes inflamed eyes flushed pale or sweaty appearance. If a child shows these or other signs of illness pain or physical distress he she should be evaluated by a health care provider. Children or staff with communicable diseases should not be allowed to attend or work in a school or child care setting until they are well. Recommendations for exclusion necessary to prevent exposure to others are contained in this document. Please report all suspected cases of communicable disease promptly to your city county or state health department. Prompt reporting is the first step to insuring appropriate control measures.
