简要总结
This randomized clinical trial studies iPad use in reducing anxiety and depression in patients undergoing bone marrow transplant. A tablet device like the iPad can provide access to music, television, movies, books, and the Internet. It also contains a video conferencing system that can allow patients to communicate with family members and other members of their social support team. With these capabilities, an iPad distribution program may help lessen patient anxiety and depression during a hospital stay. Monitoring iPad use by patients may help doctors better understand how patients use their computers and tablets while in the hospital so that the software and applications of the iPad can be made more useful.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the effect access to an iPad has on anxiety as measured by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Determine how computers and tablets are used by patients who have access to such devices.
OUTLINE: Participants are assigned to Group A or randomized to 1 of 2 groups (Groups B or C).

入选标准
- •Adult patients undergoing treatment in the bone marrow transplant (BMT) unit on the 3rd floor of the James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute
- •Patients receiving reduced intensity chemotherapy for an allogeneic stem cell transplant
排除标准
- •Patients who lack the visual or motor skills necessary to use a tablet device like the Apple iPad
- •Criteria for visual proficiency will be determined by asking the patient: do you have trouble reading a newspaper even with your glasses or contacts (if you wear them); if "yes", they will be excluded
- •Criteria for motor skill proficiency will be determined by asking the patient: do you have any trouble using a television remote control; if "yes", they will be excluded
- •Patients who do not speak English
结局指标
主要结局
Change in Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS)-Anxiety score
时间窗: Baseline to day 10
Will be analyzed using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model containing fixed effects of treatment condition (iPAD vs. no iPAD), baseline HADS-Anxiety score, and a random, normally distributed error term. The data will be log-transformed prior to analysis, so all resulting inferences will be based on the geometric mean instead of the arithmetic mean.
次要结局
- Change in HADS depression score(Baseline to day 10)
- Change in Profile of Mood States Short Form (POMS-SF) scores(Baseline to day 10)
