Sickle-cell anaemia is a hereditary blood disorder characterized by abnormal, crescent-
shaped red blood cells. These cells, known as sickle cells, can cause various complications due
to their tendency to stick together and block blood flow. The condition is caused by a mutation in
the gene that instructs the body to produce haemoglobin, the protein responsible for carrying
oxygen in the blood. As a result, affected individuals experience chronic anaemia because their
red blood cells are unable to efficiently transport oxygen throughout the body.
One of the most significant aspects of sickle-cell anaemia is its inheritance pattern. The
gene mutation responsible for the condition is autosomal recessive, meaning that a person must
inherit two copies of the mutated gene (one from each parent) to develop the disease. Individuals
who inherit only one copy of the mutated gene are carriers of the condition, known as sickle-cell
trait. While carriers typically do not experience symptoms of sickle-cell anaemia, they can pass
the mutated gene on to their children, putting them at risk of inheriting the disorder. This genetic
component often leads to families with a history of sickle-cell anaemia or carriers being more
aware of the risks and implications associated with the condition. Overall, understanding the
genetic basis of sickle-cell anaemia is crucial for diagnosis, management, and genetic
counselling to help individuals and families navigate the complexities of the disorder.

When positioning a hemiplegic patient lying down, it's essential to ensure their comfort,
safety, and prevention of pressure sores or contractures. First and foremost, communication with
the patient is key. Explain the process clearly and encourage them to communicate any
discomfort or preferences during the positioning.
Start by placing the patient on their back with their head slightly elevated, using pillows
or a wedge cushion if necessary to support the neck and upper back. Ensure that the patient's
body is properly aligned, with their hips and shoulders in line to maintain symmetry and prevent
strain on the spine.
Next, gently roll the patient onto their non-paralyzed side, supporting their head, neck,
and affected arm throughout the movement. Place a pillow or rolled towel under the arm and
between the knees to maintain proper alignment and prevent pressure sores. If necessary, use
additional pillows or cushions to support the back and provide comfort.
Regularly check on the patient's positioning, adjusting pillows or supports as needed to
maintain comfort and prevent any undue pressure on vulnerable areas. Encourage the patient to
shift their weight periodically or assist them in doing so to prevent stiffness and promote
circulation. Finally, ensure that the patient has easy access to call bells or communication
devices and is positioned in a way that allows for easy monitoring and caregiving.
