Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This single-center observational prospective longitudinal study will assess cognitive, physical, and nutritional performance in acute leukemia patients undergoing intensive chemotherapy. Patients will provide informed consent prior to enrollment. Hematologists will oversee clinical management and approve evaluations, while physical and rehabilitation medicine specialists and a nutritionist will conduct assessments. Performance will be evaluated at admission, discharge, and three weeks (21 days) after starting chemotherapy.

- Patients above 18 years, affected by Acute Leukemia, performing intensive chemotherapy
- interventionNames
- Other: observational follow up aimed at evaluating functional, physical, cognitive, and nutritional parameters
Primary outcomes (13)
- measure
- Grip Force Test
- timeFrame
- Initial evaluation (TO) at admission (+2 days) Intermediate evaluation (T1) at day 21 (+/- 1 day) after IC start Final evaluation (T2) at discharge (-2 days)
- description
- A grip force test using a dynamometer, also known as a handgrip dynamometer, measures how much force a person can apply with their fingers and forearms. It's a tool used to assess hand grip strength.
- measure
- Modified Borg Scale (MBS)
- timeFrame
- Initial evaluation (TO) at admission (+2 days) Intermediate evaluation (T1) at day 21 (+/- 1 day) after IC start Final evaluation (T2) at discharge (-2 days)
- description
- The MBS is a subjective rating scale used to measure the intensity of physical activity. It ranges from 6 to 20 points, with 6 representing "no exertion" and 20 representing "maximal exertion." The scale is divided into four categories: 6-9 (very light), 10-12 (light), 13-15 (somewhat hard), and 16-20 (very hard). The MBS is commonly used to assess the intensity of exercise and to monitor individual responses to physical activity. It can be used by people of all ages and fitness levels
