  • Research summary

    This research project aims to explore the views and lived experiences of patients and their families after completing intensive induction and consolidation chemotherapy for acute myeloid leukaemia on a newly implemented ambulatory outpatient pathway. The study will seek to understand the perceived impact of receiving therapy via this new pathway and the views and recommendations of patients and their families around what additional support and changes they would have found helpful during this process in order to improve the service provided via this pathway. Results of this study will be used to inform future research and change future practice.
