Research Article: Caregiver self-efficacy providing nutritional support for pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant is associated with psychosocial factors
Abstract:
Introduction: Caregiver self-efficacy in providing nutritional support to pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) patients has been little studied despite the increased risk of these children potentially being over- or under-nourished after HSCT, and nutritional status could possibly affect treatment outcomes. The current study aimed to describe caregiver dietary self-efficacy and its associated psychosocial factors and barriers to following dietary recommendations.
