School Reintegration After Pediatric Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant

Withdrawn

• Conditions: Unspecified Complication of Bone Marrow Transplant

• Registration Number: NCT02052570
• Lead Sponsor: Duke University

Brief Summary

This is a qualitative study that will explore the experiences of school reentry following Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT) in children ages 10-16 years of age, their parents, teachers and primary PBMT(Pediatric Bone Marrow Transplant) providers. This study will involve four focus groups: children post -transplant, parents, teachers and PBMT providers in an effort to understand the successes and challenges of returning to school following HSCT.

Detailed Description

This is a qualitative descriptive study using purposive sampling to form the four focus groups to encourage diversity in diagnosis (immunodeficiency, malignancy, bone marrow failure and inherited metabolic diseases), age and location. Each group will participate via conference call due to difference in location. There will be semi-structured questions for each group but also allow flexibility by participants themselves.
