Pain associated with sickle cell disease (SCD) is frequently treated with opioids which have many side effects. There is a need for adjuvant non-opioid therapies that can improve pain control. Acupuncture, an integrative approach, has been shown to be useful in non-SCD pain conditions but has been used to a very limited extent in SCD. In this report we present a single academic pediatric center experience showing acceptability, feasibility and improved pain experience with adjuvant acupuncture therapy in children with SCD and suggest that acupuncture should be explored as a treatment option for managing pain in SCD.
与镰状细胞病（SCD）相关的疼痛通常采用阿片类药物治疗，但这类药物有许多副作用。因此需要辅助性的非阿片类治疗方法来改善疼痛控制。针灸是一种综合性的方法，已被证明对非 SCD 疼痛疾病有效，但在 SCD 中应用非常有限。在本报告中，我们介绍了一家学术性儿科中心的经验，表明辅助性针灸治疗 SCD 儿童具有可接受性、可行性，并能改善疼痛体验，提示针灸可作为 SCD 疼痛管理的治疗选择。
