Factors Influencing the Health Behaviors of Young Adults With Sickle Cell Disease: A Scoping Review

The results of this scoping review demonstrate that there is a complex interaction of interpersonal and environmental factors that influence the health behaviors of individuals with SCD after they transition to adult care settings. Further research should explore the social environment and individual psychosocial challenges that patients with SCD face. Results can help inform interventions to prepare adolescents and young adults, as well as their families, for the transition to adult care settings.Review Protocol Registration:https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/DZCGS.
