Official title
A Phase II Clinical Trial to Determine the Effectiveness of Problem Solving Education in Caregivers and Patients During Allogeneic HSCT
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This study will examine the effectiveness of problem-solving education for patients who are undergoing a stem cell transplant and their caregivers. The emotional stress of transplant extends beyond patients to their caregivers; this study will identify the type of education that will be most helpful to transplant caregivers. Adult patients undergoing stem cell transplant at the NIH s Clinical Center and their adult caregivers are eligible for this study. The caregiver must be caring for the patient from before hospital admission for the procedure until 6 weeks following the transplant. Both patient and caregiver must be able to read and speak English. Patients and caregivers have three education sessions (in addition to the routine transplant education provided at the Clinical Center) and complete three study questionnaires as follows: * Questionnaires: The questionnaires vary somewhat for patient and caregiver, but include information on demographics (e.g., sex, race, marital status, education level), distress, lifestyle, relationship with the caregiver/patient, confidence level, symptoms, pain, fatigue and sleep quality. Questionnaires are completed before the patient undergoes the transplant (and before attending any education sessions), before the patient is discharged from the hospital and 6 weeks after hospital discharge. * Education sessions: The 60-minute sessions are designed to teach problem-solving strategies by looking at problems in a new way and learning effective communication skills. The sessions are conducted before the patient is discharged from the hospital, 1 week after discharge and 3 weeks after discharge.
