Factors Affecting Quality of Life in Patients Receiving Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
Conclusion
Data analyses from this pilot study show significant correlations between subsets of QoL with fatigue and frailty in autologous HSCT participants pre- and post-HSCT.
Implications for Practice
Understanding the impact of frailty on fatigue and QoL in HSCT recipients is critical to assist nurses in initiating educational and behavioral interventions to help mitigate the effects of HSCT.
