Hemoglobin in the red blood cells carries oxygen to all parts of the body. With Sickle Beta Zero Thalassemia (Sβ0-Thalassemia), the red blood cells have abnormal hemoglobin. This is called hemoglobin S (sickle hemoglobin). Also, there is a problem called thalassemia. This causes red blood cells to be small and pale.
ICD-10 code D57 for Sickle-cell disorders is a medical classification as listed by WHO under the range - Diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism .
Sickle beta thalassemia is an inherited condition that affects hemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to different parts of the body. It is a type of sickle cell disease.

Test Details If Sickle Cell Screen is positive, then Hemoglobinopathy Evaluation will be performed at an additional charge (CPT code(s): 83020). Hemoglobinopathy Evaluation includes: Hemoglobin A1, Fetal Hemoglobin, Hemoglobin A2, and any hemoglobin variants.
While beta thalassemia is caused by a defect in the beta-globin gene, controlling the production of the beta-globin chains of hemoglobin, sickle cell disease is caused by a defect in hemoglobin itself with the presence of abnormal hemoglobin S.
Sickle beta + thalassemia is a disease that cause a mild form of sickle cell anemia. This causes the body's hemoglobin, or red blood cells, to take on a sickle shape and not flow through the blood vessels as smoothly. This can cause a number of complications.
Sickle beta plus thalassemia (HbS β+thal) is a mild form of sickle cell disease. Many babies with HbS β+thal are born healthy and do not show symptoms until later in childhood. Some problems can include low red blood cell count, pain, and risk of infection.

Sickle cell trait (SCT) is not a disease, but having it means that a person has inherited the sickle cell gene from one of his or her parents. People with SCT usually do not have any of the symptoms of sickle cell disease (SCD) and live a normal life.
