First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study is testing a special skin sensor to see if it can accurately measure hydration levels in people with sickle cell disease. Dehydration can trigger painful crises, so a quick, non-invasive way to check hydration could help guide treatment. The study will involve 30 participants, some during a pain crisis and some when they are feeling well.
