Filter by: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.
Objectives: This study was conducted to determine the effect of music therapy on the pain, anxiety, and comfort levels of patients who underwent bone marrow aspiration and biopsy. Methods: This research was conducted as a randomized controlled study in the hematology polyclinic of a university hospital. Music therapy will used with the intervention group throughout the procedure. During data evaluation, paired t-test, independent t-test and effect size will used. The sample group was calculated based on the sample groups of other studies in the literature (Çelebi et al., 2020; Özdemir et al., 2019). According to the preliminary power analysis results using the G.Power 3.1.9 program, the sample size was calculated at 80% power, at medium effect size at 5% alpha value. According to the analysis results, the sample size per group was calculated as 30. However, since there was 10% probability that some patients may drop, the sample size for the study was recalculated as 66 (Experimental Group: 33, Control Group: 33).The patients will informed about using music. In addition, it will explained that they could adjust the sound levels and that they should report when they are disturbed by the tone. Music continued throughout the process. Communication with the patient will maintained, and symptoms such as discomfort, anxiety were observed throughout the procedure. The music player will switched off after the procedure was completed. The patients will asked whether they had any discomfort while the music played. TThe music therapy will last an average of 30 minutes. After completing the procedures, the patient's pain, comfort, and anxiety levels were re-evaluated using VAS and STAI.
Diseases of bone associated with ageing, including osteoporosis (OP) and osteoarthritis (OA), reduce bone mass, bone strength and joint integrity. Current non-surgical approaches are limited to pharmaceutical agents that are not disease modifying and have poor patient tolerability due to side effect profiles. Developing a fundamental understanding of cellular bone homeostasis, including how key cell types affect tissue health, and offering novel therapeutic targets for prevention of bone disease is therefore essential. This is the focus of OSTEOMICS. A number of factors have been linked to increased risk of bone disease, including genetic predisposition, diet, smoking, ageing, autoimmune disorders and endocrine disorders. In our study, we will recruit patients undergoing elective and non-elective orthopaedic surgery and obtain surgical bone waste for analysis. This will capture a cohort of patients with bone disorders like OP and OA, in addition to patients without overt clinical bone disease. We will study the relationship between the molecular biology of bone cells, bone structure, genetics (DNA) and environmental factors with the aim of identifying and validating novel therapeutic targets. We will leverage modern single cell technologies to understand the diversity of cell types found in bone. These technologies have now led to the characterisation of virtually every tissue in the body, however bone and bone-adjacent tissues are massively underrepresented due to the anatomical location and underlying technical challenges. Early protocols to demineralise bone and perform single cell profiling have now been developed. We will systematically scale up these efforts to observe how genetic variation at the population level leads to alterations in bone structure and quality. Over the next 10 years, we will generate data to comprehensively characterise bone across health and disease, use machine learning to drive analysis, and experimentally validate hypotheses - which will ultimately contribute to developing the next generation of therapeutic agents.
The purpose of this study is to assess the problems and a range of nutritional and clinical outcomes that occur with two feeding tubes used by children having a bone marrow transplant. Children and parents will also be interviewed to ask about their experiences of tube feeding.
The goal of this clinical research study is to determine whether it is safe and practical to give CK0801 (a Cord blood-derived T-regulatory cell product) to patients with bone marrow failure syndrome. Researchers want to determine the highest possible dose that is safe to be given. Researchers also want to learn if CK0801 may improve the symptoms of bone marrow failure syndrome. Patients enrolled in this study will all have been diagnosed with treatment refractory bone marrow failure syndrome (which includes aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or myelofibrosis). Participants eligible to participate in this study are unable or unwilling to be treated with standard therapy or have failed standard therapy.
Busulfan (Bu) has been widely used for the treatment of neoplastic and non-neoplastic hematological disturbances, with satisfactory results in terms of successful hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Individual monitoring of the Bu dosage, which is done by means of various blood sample collections, is necessary for the purpose of attaining ideal therapeutic levels and minimizing systemic toxicity. This procedure sometimes becomes costly to and uncomfortable for the patient. Saliva has been analyzed as a possible alternative fluid for this monitoring.
The purpose is to determine in a case-control study if an association exist between bone marrow adiposity and fragility fractures in post-menopausal women.
Phase 1 Part (Complete): Open-label, sequential dose escalation study of pelabresib in patients with previously treated Acute Leukemia, Myelodysplastic Syndrome, Myelodysplastic/Myeloproliferative Neoplasms, and Myelofibrosis. Phase 2 Part: Open-label study of CPI-0610 with and without Ruxolitinib in patients with Myelofibrosis. CPI-0610 is a small molecule inhibitor of bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET) proteins.
This study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of vorinostat in patients with lower risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS).
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital is studying the best ways to prevent pain during and after procedures such as bone marrow aspiration and lumbar puncture with intrathecal (in the spinal fluid) chemotherapy. Researchers will study the effectiveness of combining anesthetics (medicines that help people sleep) and analgesics (medicines that relieve pain). Researchers believe that a combination of fentanyl (analgesic) and propofol (anesthetic), along with applying the skin-numbing-cream EMLA or L.M.X4™ on the area where the procedure is performed, will provide better pain control. Each patient enrolled on this study will have three different anesthetic combinations for three different procedures, in order to determine which combination worked best for each child.
