Summary

Sickle cell disease is a genetic disease responsible for an abnormal hemoglobin.The anomaly has several consequences: a low hemoglobin rate (chronic anemia), plugs formed by red blood cells in blood vessels (extremely painful vaso-occlusive crises) and greater susceptibility to infections.

Patients with this disease should be monitored medically continuously from birth. At adulthood, they will pass from a pediatric medical care system to an adult medical care system.This transition can be experienced with more or less ease, depending on the organization within the pediatric and adult hospitals.

This questionnaire aims to assess the quality of the transition between pediatric and adult services.The investigators want to better estimate hospital work and improve the quality of care for this type of patients, throughout their entire medical history.
