<h2>Abstract</h2> High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is frequently performed in patients with hematologic malignancies. ASCT can result significant nausea, pain, and discomfort. Supportive care has improved, pharmacologic therapies are used, but limitations. Music been demonstrated to improve nausea pain undergoing chemotherapy, little data available regarding the effects of music therapy setting. In a prospective study, lymphoma or multiple...
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is physically and psychologically challenging, potentially exposing patients to quality-of-life (QoL) impairments. Adolescent young adults (AYAs, aged 15 39 years) are a vulnerable cohort facing multiple hurdles due dynamic changes in several aspects of their lives. The AYA population may be particularly prone QoL issues during HCT. We hypothesized that the unique psychosocial challenges faced by AYAs, they would have an inferior quality life. studied...
Haploidentical (haplo) donor grafts are a well-established alternative source for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT); however, data comparing health-realted quality of life (HRQOL) measures between haplo-HCT and HCT using other sources lacking. We hypothesized that post-transplantation HRQOL might not differ with graft sources. conducted single-institution retrospective analysis matched-related (MRD) matched unrelated (MUD) hematologic diseases. included 90 haplo, 102 MRD,...
Clinical social workers are psychosocial care experts who provide interventions that aim to address the emotional, relational, financial, and logistical challenges arise throughout hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) treatment recovery process. Interventions contribute better patient outcomes can include cognitive behavioral therapy counseling for adaptation illness, family planning 24/7 caregiver availability strategies support activities of daily living, instruction on guided imagery...
Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). GVHD associated with severe physical psychosocial symptoms. We sought to evaluate the feasibility capturing patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures in acute better measure symptom burden quality life (QOL). conducted pilot study adult patients undergoing first HCT. Questions from Functional Assessment Cancer Therapy-Bone Marrow Transplantation...
SummaryOuabain was infused into the brachial artery of dog forelimb for one hour and resistances to blood flow through skin skeletal muscle vascular beds were calculated. Skin resistance progressively increased whereas initially then returned control value. This difference between responses in these two parallel entirely accounted by changes small vessel segments. There no large arteries beds.
Through the multi-year System Capacity Initiative and in collaboration with hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) experts key stakeholders, National Marrow Donor Program®/Be The Match® evaluated impact of workforce infrastructure challenges on utilization HCT. A finding from needs assessments (Majhail et al. BBMT, 2012; Denzen, 2013) was that effectiveness recruitment retention efforts is limited by work-related distress (e.g., burnout, moral distress, compassion fatigue) across HCT workforce....
The projected shortage of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) health professionals was identified as a major issue during the National Marrow Donor Program's System Capacity Initiative. In response, multi-disciplinary working group formed to address recruitment/retention issues for HCT providers. Care recipients can be physically and emotionally challenging, need work-related distress work-life balance identified. This study examines these barriers well their association with career...
