About this study

Official title: Effects of a Multidirectional Walking Program on Physical Function and Quality of Life in Hematopoetic Stem Cell Transplant Patients

This study will determine if a structured walking intervention will help maintain or improve physical activity levels, physical function and quality of life in hematopoietic stem cell transplant patients.

Read the detailed description

The researchers will quantify the decline in physical function of HSCT patients using valid and reliable tests aimed to mimic activities of daily living, quantify cardiovascular health, and quantify muscle power declines. Also, patients will undergo a walking program during their hospitalization, which is designed to increase physical activity levels and maintain and improve physical function and quality of life. Additionally, using valid and reliable questionnaires, the researchers will gauge perception of exercise, quantify current exercise levels, determine preference of exercise programs and counseling, and measure differences in quality of life before and after HSCT treatment.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Walk Training and Transplant and Activity Monitoring and Transplant in people with Cancer and Walking, run by University of Miami at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Apr 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The Physical Performance Test Battery (time frame: 10 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 6 Apr 2018.
