During hospitalization for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT), patients experience a steep deterioration in quality of life (QOL) and mood. The impact of this deterioration on patients’ post-HCT QOL and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms is unknown. We conducted a prospective longitudinal study of patients hospitalized for HCT. We assessed QOL (Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bone Marrow Transplantation [FACT-BMT]) and depression and anxiety symptoms (Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9)) at the time of admission for HCT, during hospitalization, and 6-month post-HCT. We also used the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) to measure patients’ anxiety and depression symptoms at baseline and during HCT hospitalization. We used the PTSD Checklist to assess for PTSD symptoms. We used multivariable linear regression models to identify predictors of QOL and PTSD symptoms at six months. We enrolled 97% (90/93) of consecutively eligible patients undergoing autologous and allogeneic HCT. Data at six months were available for 67 participants. At six months, 28.4% of participants met criteria for PTSD and 43.3% had clinically significant depression. In multivariable regression analyses adjusting for significant covariates, change in QOL and depression scores from week-2 of HCT hospitalization to baseline predicted worse QOL (ΔQOL β= 0.94, P < 0.0001, ΔPHQ-9 β= −2.59, P = 0.001) and PTSD symptoms (ΔQOL β= −0.40, P < 0.0001, ΔPHQ-9 β= 1.26, P < 0.0001) at six months post-HCT. Six months after HCT, a significant proportion of patients met criteria for PTSD and depression. Decline in QOL and increase in depressive symptoms during hospitalization for HCT were the most important predictors of 6-month QOL impairment and PTSD symptoms. Therefore, managing depression symptoms and QOL deterioration during HCT hospitalization may be critical to improving QOL at six months and reduce the risk of PTSD.
