| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to investigate patients’ number of daily steps and physical activities before and the day after undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).The study included 69 patients (men: n = 42 and women: n = 27) who underwent allo-HSCT. Daily steps and physical activity were assessed by using a triaxial accelerometer. Physical activity was divided according to the energy required to perform the activity as follows and assessed based on activity frequency: 1-2 METs, 2-3 METs, and >3 METs. The daily steps and frequency of physical activity of the allo-HSCT patients were compared between before transplantation (pretreatment phase) and the day after transplantation. In these 50 patients, daily steps and frequency of physical activities of 1-2 METs, 2-3 METs, and >3 METs were significantly decreased the day after transplantation compared with before transplantation (p < 0.01, respectively).
