Quality of life of patients with severe chronic neutropenia receiving long-term treatment with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor.

OBJECTIVE--To evaluate the impact of long-term granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) treatment on quality of life of patients with congenital, cyclic, or idiopathic neutropenia. STUDY DESIGN, INTERVENTION, AND OUTCOME MEASURES--Twenty-one patients receiving daily subcutaneous GCSF responded to retrospective questions about disease-related symptoms and physical, psychological, and social functioning before and with GCSF therapy. RESULTS--Statistically significant improvement occurred in energy, emotional reactions, social isolation, functional ability, life satisfaction, decreased hospital admissions, and school attendance. CONCLUSION--GCSF greatly improves quality of life in patients with severe chronic neutropenia.[1]
