Daily living and rehabilitation needs in patients and caregivers affected by myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN): A qualitative study

Researchers in Denmark uncovered trends in data derived from focus groups—during a 5-day rehabilitation course—of patients with MPNs and their caregivers. Patients frequently mentioned the loss of choice and identity due to the need to prioritize energy and the schism of being a person but also a patient, while caregivers tended to note the influence of the disease on their lives, including family, social relationships, and work.
