Registration Number
NCT05978583
Lead Sponsor
UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center
Brief Summary

This is a single-site, non-randomized, interventional study designed to evaluate the impact of adding physical and occupational therapy consultation upon inpatient admission for a bone marrow transplantation (BMT). The purpose of this study is to investigate whether consultation with physical and occupational therapists as part of the general admission order set for patients scheduled for bone marrow transplant will result in reduced complications, morbidity, length of inpatient stay, 30-day readmission and 90-day mortality. Baseline data collection will be used to determine eligibility. This study will be partially retrospective (pre-implementation of physical and occupational therapy consultation order) and partially prospective.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
30-day readmissionUp to 30 days after bone marrow transplantation

30-day readmission rates will be calculated using historical data (pre-intervention) and compared to rates once physical and occupational therapy consultation has been included in the inpatient admission order set for bone marrow transplantation (BMT).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The feasibility1 day (the date of bone marrow transplantation)

The proportion of individuals who received a physical and occupational therapy consultation in the prospective group.

Mortality ratesUp to 90 days after bone marrow transplantation

Mortality rates will be calculated by comparing, how many subjects died pre-intervention and post-intervention, using medical record data.

Acute care length of stayUp to 90 days after bone marrow transplantation

Acute care length of stay will be calculated using historical data (pre-intervention) and compared to rates once physical and occupational therapy consultation has been included in the inpatient admission order set for BMT.

Complication types and ratesUp to 90 days after bone marrow transplantation

Complication types and rates will be calculated and compared pre-intervention and post-intervention using medical record data.
