Sleep and Physical Activity in Patient and Caregiver Dyads Following Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

This observational study is examining how sleep quality, physical activity, and emotional wellbeing change for both patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (a type of stem cell transplant for blood cancers) and their primary caregivers — both during hospitalization and after discharge. Researchers are also looking at whether patients and caregivers experience these changes differently from each other. Adults (18 and older) diagnosed with a blood cancer who are scheduled for an allogeneic stem cell transplant, along with their identified primary caregiver, can participate if both have smartphone or tablet access and are able to read and consent in English. Participation involves wearing a Fitbit device to track sleep and activity, and completing online questionnaires at two timepoints during and after the transplant process. This summary was prepared with AI assistance to help patients understand the study in plain language.
