Navigating decisional conflict as a family when facing the decision of stem cell transplant for a child or adolescent with sickle cell disease.

The aim of this study was to describe the level and source of decisional conflict in families of children/adolescents with SCD facing a transplant decision. The investigators concluded that varying levels and sources of decisional conflict existed in pediatric patients with SCD and their families considering transplant.
