Research Overview:
This dataset captures the longitudinal experience of both patients undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and their caregivers through continuous physiological monitoring, daily mood reporting, and periodic health assessments. The data provides unprecedented insight into the dynamic relationship between caregiver well-being and patient outcomes during the critical post-transplant period. and Key Points:
Digital biomarker data collected from 166 HCT caregiver-patient dyads over 120 days post-transplant
Comprehensive physiological monitoring through wearable devices (Fitbit® Charge 3)
Integration of daily mood reports, PROMIS® health measures, and clinical outcomes
Unique paired data structure allowing analysis of caregiver-patient dynamics
