Detailed description
The study is a single arm pilot study to evaluate the implementation of a novel home blood transfusion program at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. The study population will include patients with hematologic malignancies and other bone marrow failure syndromes with transfusion dependent cytopenias. Participants will receive home blood draws and if needed same day transfusions. Data will be collected via surveys at time of each study visit, participant surveys at the end of the intervention as well as a semi structured interview. Each participant in the study will receive 1-2 blood products transfused in the home each week for a total of 5 transfusions. As a result each participant will be eligible to receive transfusions at home for 5 weeks.
