Pathophysiology: What specifically is causing this patient's current pain crisis? Patient Case
Question 2. What specifically is causing this patient's current pain crisis?
Solution
The patient has consumed less water and performed rigorous exercises causing dehydration and
hemoconcentration. Due to this, the sickle cell rbc are concentrated at the capillaries and block
the fine capillaries causing severe pain. Sickle cells cannot pass through the capillaries like
normal rbc.
