Evaluating Clinical Evaluation Tools for Predicting Risk of Complications After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant

This study evaluates whether clinical evaluation tools such as the six-minute walk test, hand grip strength test, and gait speed test, are useful in predicting risk of complications in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplants (HCT). Being able to predict who is at increased risk of post-HCT complications can help better inform patients and providers on the risks and benefits of undergoing HCT and determine whether certain patients should have closer post-HCT monitoring due to an increased risk of complications.
