简要总结
The purpose of this study is to examine the impact that serving as a caregiver for a patient undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant has on the caregiver. This will include looking at the caregiver's level of burden, depression, anxiety, somatic symptoms, fatigue and overall distress. It will also look at whether caregiver burden leads to an increase in hospitalization and overall outcome.

结局指标
主要结局
Brief Symptom Inventory and Burden Interview
时间窗: Baseline, Day 30 & 1 year
Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI) measures overall distress. Scores can range from 0-72 with the higher score representing a higher level of distress. Each question is 0-4 with 4 being higher levels of distress. Clinically significant level of distress is 25+. Burden Interview is scored on a continuum. No clinically range, but higher scores mean higher feelings of burden. Scores range from 0-88. Time frame: BSI scores and Burden scores were compared in caregivers of HSCT patients at preBMT and post BMT (30 days and 1 year).
