The Chronic Illness Problem Inventory (CIPI) was used to assess level of psychosocial functioning in 89 patients with sickle cell disease. The results indicated that sickle cell patients have significant psychosocial distress in the areas of employment and finances, sleeping and eating, and performance of normal daily activities. Fear and anxiety regarding body deterioration, and lack of assertiveness in social relationships were also found. These findings suggest that depression may be a common problem among sickle cell patients. Treatment alternatives that address these areas are reviewed.
慢性疾病问题量表（CIPI）用于评估89例镰状细胞病患者的心理社会功能水平。结果表明，镰状细胞病患者在就业和财务、睡眠和饮食以及正常日常活动表现等方面存在显著的心理社会困扰。还发现了对身体恶化的恐惧和焦虑，以及在社会关系中缺乏自信。这些发现表明，抑郁症可能是镰状细胞病患者中的常见问题。本文综述了针对这些方面的治疗选择。
