Mindfulness practice for well-being during stem cell transplant
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether a simple mindfulness program (a way to focus your mind and relax) can improve your quality of life during a stem cell transplant. It may help you feel better emotionally and physically while you are in the hospital.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
