Brief summary (registry, in English)

Sickle cell disease (SCD) is the most frequent life-threatening genetic hemoglobinopathy in the world and occurs due to the synthesis of abnormal hemoglobin S (HbS).Cells with sickle cell hemoglobin are stiff and sticky. When they lose their oxygen, they form into the shape of a sickle or crescent. This can cause pain and tissue damage. Significant decrease in exercise capacity was seen in sickle cell anemic children. In the absence of a guidelines that can guide the prescription of exercise in SCD children. This study is a step for determine the forms of prescription of pain on the balance and muscle strength to build up in future studies a safety of physical exercises for children with sickle cell anemia and improve their functional abilities.
