An observational study in Bone Marrow Transplantation and Bone Marrow Disease, sponsored by UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center. Completed at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-12-15.
Sponsored by UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center · Observational
This is a single-site, non-randomized, observational 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.

Subjects who are admitted for bone marrow transplantation (BMT) at the study site.
Exclusion Criteria:
1. No history of inpatient admission for BMT
Physical and occupational therapy consultation might be used to provide targeted prehabilitation interventions.
30-day readmission
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).
Time frame: Up to 30 days after bone marrow transplantation
The feasibility
The proportion of individuals who received a physical and occupational therapy consultation in the prospective group.
Time frame: 1 day (the date of bone marrow transplantation)
Acute care length of stay
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.
Time frame: Up to 90 days after bone marrow transplantation
Mortality rates
Mortality rates will be calculated by comparing, how many subjects died pre-intervention and post-intervention, using medical record data.
Time frame: Up to 90 days after bone marrow transplantation
Complication types and rates
Complication types and rates will be calculated and compared pre-intervention and post-intervention using medical record data.
Time frame: Up to 90 days after bone marrow transplantation
