About
Haematological cancer treatment often includes use of high dose glucocorticoids (steroids), chemotherapy and radiotherapy and current evidence suggests that these patients may have lower bone mineral density after treatment when compared to the general population which can predispose them to increased risk of fragility fractures. Evidence of the impact of these musculoskeletal burden to patients (e.g. quality of life) are not available.
This study aims to describe musculoskeletal complications experienced by long-term haematological cancer survivors and examine the impact of the burden from the patient perspective. The study will be conducted in 2 parts; a questionnaire study and an interview study to help understand the extent of musculoskeletal problems experienced by this group of patients and the impact of this on quality of life.
