ASCAT 2024 | The psychosocial perspective on care in thalassemia
Maya Bizri, MD, MPH, Cleveland Clinic, Cleveland, OH, and the American University of Beirut, Beirut, Lebanon, provides insight into her talk on the psychosocial perspective on care in patients with thalassemia. Dr Bizri highlights the complexity of addressing psychiatric needs in adult thalassemia patients, emphasizing the need for improved diagnostic tools to accurately assess issues such as depression, anxiety, and cognitive changes like brain fog, which are often mischaracterized in individuals with chronic disease. This interview took place at the 19th Annual Scientific Conference of the Academy for Sickle Cell and Thalassaemia (ASCAT 2024) in London, UK.
