MASTROPIETRO, Ana Paula; OLIVEIRA-CARDOSO, Érika Arantes de  e  SANTOS, Manoel Antônio dos. Occupational life of patients surviving a bone marrow transplantation: Exploratory study. Rev. bras. orientac. prof [online]. 2011, vol.12, n.2, pp. 241-252. ISSN 1984-7270.

The aim of this prospective study was to describe the changes in the occupational status of 62 Bone Marrow Transplantation (BMT) survivors, comparing three groups: G1 (up to 18 months after the BMT), G2 (from 19 to 48 months after the BMT) and G3 (from 49 to 120 months after the BMT). To collect data we used two instruments: a Socio-demographic and Clinical Characteristics Survey and a Post-BMT Recovery Questionnaire. The data were submitted to thematic content analysis. The results showed that newly transplanted patients faced more difficulties reassuming productive lives, causing downtime, budget deficits and impairments in social functioning. Four years after BMT, they had less difficulties in reassuming work (G3). Nevertheless, it appears that many patients managed to adapt to their new reality, being able to design new occupational projects. The findings contribute to underpinning the practice in Vocational Rehabilitation in the field of Occupational Therapy.
