Abstract: Therapeutic education is an integral part of the management of sickle cell patients. It includes the medical aspects but also the psychological, family and social repercussions of their chronic disease. It allows, at every stage of the patient's life, a care practice centred on the patient as a subject by offering him tools to become an effective actor of the management of complications, in the search for an acceptable quality of life.<br /> (Copyright © 2021 Elsevier Masson SAS.
