简要总结

RATIONALE: Gathering information about patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia who are discharged after finishing chemotherapy, or who stay in the hospital until blood counts return to normal, may help doctors learn more about a patient's quality of life, use of medical services, and the cost of these services.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying early discharge and outpatient care in patients who have undergone chemotherapy for myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To compare the death rate in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes or acute myeloid leukemia who are discharged after completion of induction chemotherapy vs those who remain in the hospital until blood counts recover.

Secondary

  • To determine the proportion of patients who meet the early discharge criteria after completion of induction chemotherapy.
  • To compare the costs incurred by patients who are discharged early vs those who are discharged only after blood counts recover.
  • To compare resource utilization (e.g., transfusions) among these patients.
  • To compare the quality of life of these patients.
