Overview	This study tests the effectiveness of oral dexamethasone for the acute chest syndrome (ACS) of sickle cell disease (SCD) in children and adults in the context of standard supportive care. This study primarily aims to determine whether dexamethasone shortens the duration of signs and symptoms of and medical intervention for ACS.
Focus Areas	1. To determine whether dexamethasone decreases the duration of signs and symptoms of ACS. 2. To determine (1) whether dexamethasone reduces morbidity associated with ACS; (2) whether a tapered regimen of dexamethasone prevents rebound VOC; (3) whether dexamethasone modulates the endothelial phenotype to a less proadhesive, and procoagulant state, and to determine if the discontinuation of dexamethasone will be associated with a rebound in the expression of endothelial activation markers of adhesion and coagulation; (4) whether dexamethasone prevents subacute adverse effects of ACS on pulmonary function; and (5) whether dexamethasone modulates white cell activation and if the discontinuation of dexamethasone will be associated with a rebound in white cell activation.
Outcomes	1. The duration of signs and symptoms of ACS or duration of hospitalization, whichever is less. The duration of signs and symptoms of ACS is defined as the interval between study entry and the time at which tachypnea, hypoxemia, increased work of breathing, and thoracic pain have resolved and supplemental oxygen and ventilatory support are no longer utilized. 2. Clinical endpoints include: rating of pain, duration of hospitalization, supplemental oxygen, hypoxemia, and fever, number of transfusions, quantification of opioid use, rebound hospitalizations, pulmonary radiographic findings, and pulmonary function testing results. Laboratory endpoints include: VCAM1, ICAM1, P-selectin, L-selectin, vWF multimers, endothelial and monocyte microparticles, WBTF, NO, and sPLA2.
