Pre- and post-HSCT comparison of PROMIS measures (T-scores; n = 20).

PROMIS Measures (n = 20)	Pre–HSCT	Post–HSCT	Post–HSCT outcome
Pain intensity (NRS 0–10)*	4.5 (0–8)	0.5 (0–7)	Improved (P < 0.05)
Pain impact*	59.9 (40.7–77)	40.7 (34.9–77)	Improved (P < 0.05)
Physical functionf†	43.5 (32–59.2)	59.2 (32–59.2)	Improved (P < 0.05)
Satisfaction with social role†	50 (26.9–66.1)	55.7 (30.8–66.1)	Improved (P < 0.05)

Depression*	46.1 (38.2–64.9)	46.1 (30.5–81.3)	Unchanged (n/s)

HSCT, haematopoietic stem cell transplant; NRS, numeric rating scale; PROMIS, patient reported outcome measures information system.

^*Higher scores in these measures indicate more suffering.

^†Higher scores in these measures indicate better health.
