Official Title: Low-Intensity Mechanical Stimulation to Prevent Hematopoietic Cell Transplant-Related Bone Mineral Density Loss
Brief Summary:
This clinical trial tests the effect of low-intensity mechanical stimulation (LIMS) vibration therapy on bone mineral density (BMD) in patients undergoing a blood and/or bone marrow transplant (hematopoietic cell transplantation [HCT]).HCT is a curative treatment for many blood cancers and as a consequence, there are more survivors with long-term effects such as loss of BMD.BMD loss can lead to increased risk of fractures and joint replacements.The LIMS board delivers vibrations through the bones that may…
