RESUMO

BACKGROUND: More than half the long-term survivors of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation develop chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), a debilitating inflammatory syndrome. Supportive interventions to assist survivors in coping with chronic GVHD are critically needed. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We conducted a pilot randomized clinical trial of a multidisciplinary group intervention (Horizons Program; n=39) versus minimally enhanced usual care (n=41) for patients with moderate or severe chronic GVHD. Horizons participants received 8 weekly sessions about GVHD and coping co-led by a transplant clinician and a behavioral health expert via a secure videoconferencing platform. Participants completed the following surveys before randomization, at 10 weeks, and at 18 weeks: Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bone Marrow Transplant Scale (FACT-BMT) for quality of life (QoL), Lee Symptom Scale for symptom burden, and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Depression Symptoms (HADS) for mood. The primary endpoint was feasibility (≥50% enrollment, ≥80% attendance in half the sessions for the Horizons arm only, and ≥80% retention). We also explored preliminary efficacy of the Horizons intervention on changes in patient-reported outcomes with linear mixed effects models and estimates of effect size at 10 weeks. RESULTS: We enrolled and registered 80 (67.2%) of 119 eligible patients (mean age, 62 years; 48.8% female). Of the participants in the Horizons Program, 84.6% attended at least half the sessions. Of registered participants, 91.3% completed assessment follow-ups (Horizons, 35/39 [89.7%]; minimally enhanced usual care, 38/41 [92.7%]). Horizons participants reported improvements in QoL (b = 2.24; d=0.53), anxiety symptoms (b = -0.10; d=0.34), and depression symptoms (b = -0.71; d=0.44) compared with participants who received minimally enhanced usual care. CONCLUSIONS: Participation in a multidisciplinary group intervention study was feasible for patients with chronic GVHD, with promising signals for improving QoL and mood. A full-scale efficacy trial is needed to confirm effects on patient-reported outcomes.

RESUMO

Delirium, a common neuropsychiatric syndrome among hospitalized patients, has been associated with significant morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Although delirium is often reversible with prompt diagnosis and appropriate management, timely screening of hospitalized patients, including HSCT recipients at risk for delirium, is lacking. The association between delirium symptoms and healthcare utilization among HSCT recipients is also limited. We conducted a retrospective analysis of 502 hospitalized patients admitted for allogeneic or autologous HSCT at 2 tertiary care hospitals between April 2016 and April 2021. We used Natural Language Processing (NLP) to identify patients with delirium symptoms, as defined by an NLP-assisted chart review of the electronic health record (EHR). We used multivariable regression models to examine the associations between delirium symptoms, clinical outcomes, and healthcare utilization, adjusting for patient-, disease-, and transplantation-related factors. Overall, 44.4% (124 of 279) of patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT and 39.0% (87 of 223) of those undergoing autologous HSCT were identified as having delirium symptoms during their index hospitalization. Two-thirds (139 of 211) of the patients with delirium symptoms were prescribed treatment with antipsychotic medications. Among allogeneic HSCT recipients, delirium symptoms were associated with longer hospital length of stay (ß = 7.960; P < .001), fewer days alive and out of the hospital (ß = -23.669; P < .001), and more intensive care unit admissions (odds ratio, 2.854; P = .002). In autologous HSCT recipients, delirium symptoms were associated with longer hospital length of stay (ß = 2.204; P < .001). NLP-assisted EHR review is a feasible approach to identifying hospitalized patients, including HSCT recipients at risk for delirium. Because delirium symptoms are negatively associated with health care utilization during and after HSCT, our findings underscore the need to efficiently identify patients hospitalized for HSCT who are at risk of delirium to improve their outcomes. © 2023 American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy.
