AB - It is unclear if adolescents with sickle cell disease (SCD) are screened for depression, since primary care provider (PCP) visits decline with age and socioeconomic disadvantage may impact receipt of care. This 1-year study identified 97% of adolescents with SCD at Nationwide Children's Hospital (NCH) had a PCP. Among those with an NCH PCP (n = 55), 40% saw their PCP and 33% were screened for depression. Socioeconomic disadvantage was not associated with receipt of depression screening (p = 0.55) or PCP care (p = 0.22). While adolescents with SCD often have PCPs, interventions to increase PCP engagement may improve depression identification in this high-risk population.
