Sickle cell disorders or other haemoglobinopathies

International Classification of Diseases for Mortality and Morbidity Statistics, 11th Revision, v2024-01

Any disorder caused by a HbS mutation in the haemoglobin gene. This disorder is characterised by abnormal rigid sickle-shaped red blood cells decreasing its ability to carry oxygen. This disorder may present with fatigue, shortness of breath, dizziness, headaches, pallor of skin or mucous membranes, and jaundice. This disorder is confirmed by identification of HbS mutation by genetic testing.
