Quality of life of patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation
Summary:
INTRODUCTION: Cancer is a difficult and dangerous health problem. Certain conditions can be addressed by haematopoietic cell transplantation. However, the process of transplantation can affect the quality of life of these individuals, causing extensive emotional, physical and social problems.
PURPOSE: Investigation of the quality of life of individuals after haematopoietic cell transplantation.
METHOD: An international bibliographic review was made in PubMed and Google Scholar on the subject and articles included from 2000 to 2018.
RESULTS: The search resulted in 16 articles showing the factors and the extent to which the quality of life of the transplants is affected. The 2 articles were qualitative studies, the remaining 14 quantitative studies.
CONCLUSIONS: This systematic review suggests that the negative impact of transplantation is mainly due to the side effects experienced by patients, their emotional, physical, social and functional status as well as to how transplant patients see and accept changes.
KEYWORDS: bone marrow transplantation, quality of life, allogeneic BMT, autologous BMT, physical fitness, mental health, survivors.
