About this study

Autograft is one of hematological malignancies treatment, such as lymphoma and myeloma. This technique requires several weeks of hospitalization in a protected environment and can be a source of anxiety of different natures for patients. According to the medical and scientific report of the Biomedicine Agency in 2016, 3 043 patients were involved in an autologous transplant, which represents a significant number of patients potentially exposed to these types of anxiety.

That is why it will be interesting in this study to report weekly the level of anxiety throughout their hospitalization for the autologous transplant, to detect the most stressful period.

A validated questionnaire will be used: the HAD (Hospital Anxiety and Depression) scale of anxiety and depression.

Treatment and study plan

HAD (Hospital Anxiety and Depression) scale

Other

HAD (Hospital Anxiety and Depression) scale will be completed and reported by patients the first day of conditioning and then weekly from day 0 corresponding to the autograft, until their last day in the hematological department.

Primary outcomes

  1. Anxiety and depression measure

    Time frame: 30 days

    The aim of this study is to measure patients anxiety and depression, using the HAD : Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale.

    Scores of the HAD scale can be defined as:

    • By adding the points of the answers: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13: we obtain the "Total A" which corresponds to the measure of the anxiety, then:
    • 7 or less: absence of symptomatology;
    • 8 to 10: doubtful symptomatology;
    • 11 and above: certain symptomatology.
    • By adding the points of the answers: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14: we obtain the "Total B" which corresponds to the measure of the depression, then:
    • 7 or less: absence of symptomatology;
    • 8 to 10: doubtful symptomatology;
    • 11 and above: certain symptomatology.

    The minimal score is 0 and the maximal total score is 42.
