Impairments in dyspnea, exercise capacity, physical activity and quality of life of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation survivors compared with healthy individuals: a cross sectional study.

CONCLUSION: Dyspnea during daily living activities, exercise capacity, physical activity level and QOL are considerably impaired in allogeneic-HSCT recipients during post-engraftment period. To improve impaired outcomes, allogeneic-HSCT recipients should be oriented to cardiopulmonary rehabilitation programs. PMID: 30958713 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
