“…Two South Korean studies have identified means over 48 years old (Kang et al, 2020;Kim et al, 2020). An Italian study found a mean of 50 years old (Biagioli et al, 2019), and a research study conducted in the United States found a mean of 56 years old (LaLonde et al, 2021).…”

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the relaxation technique with guided imagery by means of virtual reality on health-related quality of life in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Methods: A quasi-experiment conducted in a Bone Marrow Transplantation Service of a public hospital in southern Brazil. From October 2019 to October 2020, forty-two adult participants who underwent transplantation were included, 35 in the intervention group and seven in the control group. A guided imagery intervention, with audio guiding the relaxation associated with nature images in 360º, was performed during the hospitalization period. Data were collected on the first day of hospitalization, on the transplantation day, during the neutropenia stage, and at pre-hospital discharge. The Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bone Marrow Transplantation (FACT-BMT), Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-Fatigue) and Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Neutropenia (FACT-N) were used to assess health-related quality of life, fatigue and neutropenia. Data were analyzed using the Generalized Linear Mixed Model for the evolution of the health-related quality of life assessments over time, considering the groups and stages. Pearson's correlation coefficient was adopted for the correlation analyses. Results: Allogeneic transplantation was predominant: 28 (80%) in the intervention group and 5 (71.43%) in the control group. There were improvements in the health-related quality of life scores, although not significant. A significant difference was found among the stages (p<0.050) and a significant positive correlation (p<0.000) among the variables on general quality of life, additional concerns, fatigue and neutropenia in all stages. Conclusion: Patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation suffer changes in their quality of life. Interventions based on integrative practices emerge as an option to minimize them.

“…The mean age of participants in the study can be considered low, when compared with international means. South-Korean studies showed means above 48 years old (18)(19) ; a multi-centric Italian research found a mean of 50 years old (20) ; and an investigation from the United States reported a mean of 56 years old (21) . On the other hand, in Brazil, the mean ages are similar to that found in this research, as another study carried out with a similar population in the South of the Country shows (2) .…”

“…The same was true for a study in a private transplantation center in the northeast of the country, with means of 38 years old, approximately (22) . For all studies (2,(18)(19)(20)(21)(22) , however, the population of patients undergoing HSCT is relatively young and in a productive age. Isolation from one's family, work, and social life in general, associated with the limitation of one's own autonomy as related with the restrictions of treatment, generates negative impacts on the quality of life and even in the therapeutic course and in the response to the patients.…”

Objective: To analyze the effects of the technique of virtual reality guided imagery in the vital signs of hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation patients. Method: Quasi-experimental study with 35 participants who received an intervention using virtual reality guided imagery with progressive muscle relaxation, applied three times a week for four weeks in a referral hospital for transplants in the south of Brazil. Data collected included: temperature, arterial pressure, respiratory rate, heart rate, pain, and oxygen saturation, before and after each intervention. The comparisons were analyzed using Wilcoxon’s test. Results: There was a clinical significance between the mean measurements before and after for respiratory rate (p=0.00) in all stages, and for the variables Heart rate, Temperature, and Oxygen saturation from the 1st to the 12th measurements (p=0.05). Conclusion: The intervention was low cost, easy to apply, and showed positive effects, presenting itself as an option for patient-focused care.

“…A média de idade dos participantes deste estudo pode ser considerada baixa quando comparada com médias internacionais. Estudos sul-coreanos identificaram médias acima de 48 anos (18)(19) ; pesquisa multicêntrica italiana encontrou média de 50 anos (20) ; e uma investigação conduzida nos Estados Unidos relatou média de 56 anos (21) . Por outro lado, no Brasil, as médias de idade são semelhantes às encontradas nesta pesquisa, como demonstrado em estudo desenvolvido com população similar na Região Sul (2) e em outro realizado num centro transplantador privado na Região Nordeste, que apresentaram médias de 38 anos aproximadamente (22) .…”

“…Em todos os estudos (2,(18)(19)(20)(21)(22) , porém, a população de pacientes submetidos ao TCTH é de indivíduos relativamente jovens e em fase produtiva. O afastamento da família, do trabalho e da vida social em geral, associado à limitação da própria autonomia relacionada às restrições do tratamento, gera impactos negativos na qualidade de vida e mesmo no curso terapêutico e resposta dos pacientes.…”

RESUMO Objetivo: Analisar os efeitos da técnica de imagem guiada por realidade virtual nos sinais vitais de transplantados de células-tronco hematopoéticas. Método: Estudo quase experimental com 35 participantes que receberam intervenção de imagem guiada por realidade virtual com relaxamento muscular progressivo, aplicada três vezes por semana durante quatro semanas, em um hospital de referência em transplante no Sul do Brasil. Os dados coletados foram: temperatura, pressão arterial, respiração, frequência cardíaca, dor e saturação de oxigênio, antes e depois de cada intervenção. As comparações foram analisadas pelo teste de Wilcoxon. Resultados: Houve significância clínica entre as médias das aferições de antes e depois para Frequência respiratória (p=0,00) em todas as etapas; e nas variáveis Frequência cardíaca, Temperatura e Saturação de oxigênio, entre a 1ª até 12ª avaliação (p=0,05). Conclusão: Os efeitos da intervenção se mostraram favoráveis, de baixo custo e fácil realização, sendo uma opção de ação de cuidado centrado no paciente.
