Neste momento, Portugal está a implementar um projeto piloto para rastreio de casos de drepanocitose no âmbito do Programa Nacional de Rastreio Neonatal. Este projeto iniciou-se na região de Lisboa e Vale do Tejo onde reside, comparativamente com as outras regiões nacionais, uma maior proporção da população africana. Contudo, antecipando a expansão deste rastreio ao restante do território nacional, deparamo-nos com a seguinte questão: como comunicar os resultados de rastreios positivos para heterozigotos HbS?
