Summary

Through an aggregated N=1 randomized controlled design (each patient will serve as their own control, with the 5-day intervention period determined by randomization), the current study will test the acceptability, feasibility, and impact on sleep and supportive care engagement of protecting one 6-hour window for nighttime sleep (intervention) relative to regular vitals checks (observation only periods) during Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT) recovery.
