## Abstract Chronic simple hypertransfusion (every 3 to 4 weeks) effectively prevents secondary stroke in children with sickle cell anemia but leads to iron overload despite chelation therapy. Conventional red blood cell exchange (CβRBCx) has advantages over simple transfusion: no net iron gain and
Oxygen equilibrium curves, red cell indices, 2,3-DPG levels, and the percentages of ISC and Hb F were determined for red cell fractions isolated by Dextran 40 density gradient centrifugation from blood of a sickle cell anemia (SS) patient, an SS patient with an additional homozygosity for ct-thalass
