ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES:
To identify which factors can influence the patients' perception of protective isolation following Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT).METHODS:
This is a prospective study conducted in 10 Italian centres, members of the Italian Group of stem cell transplant (GITMO). Patients' perception of protective isolation was assessed using the ISOLA scale between 7 and 9 days post-transplant. Statistical linear regression analysis was performed.RESULTS:
The participants were 182 adult patients receiving autologous (48%) or allogeneic (52%) HSCT in protective isolation. Male sex (ß = .152), education level (ß = -.245), double room (ß = .186), satisfaction with visiting hours (ß = -.174) and emotional support from nurses (ß = -.169) were independently associated with isolation-related suffering. Significant predictors of the relationship with oneself included body temperature (ß = -.179), fatigue (ß = -.192) and emotional support from nurses (ß = -.292). Factors independently associated with the relationship with others were education (ß = -.230), chemotherapy cycles (ß = -.218), pain (ß = .150) and satisfaction with visiting hours (ß = -.162).CONCLUSION:
Healthcare providers should pay greater attention in caring for those patients who are at risk for a negative isolation experience. Nurses should provide emotional support.Palavras-chave
