Team Cognition

Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is an important and complex treatment modality for a variety of hematologic malignancies and some solid tumors. Although outcomes of patients who have undergone HCT and require care in intensive care units (ICUs) have improved over time, mortality rates remain high and there are significant associated costs. Lack of a team-based approach to care, especially during critical illness, is detrimental to patient autonomy and satisfaction, and to team morale, ultimately leading to poor quality of care. In this manuscript, we describe the case of a patient who had undergone HCT and was in the ICU setting, where inconsistent team interaction among the various stakeholders delivering care resulted in a lack of shared goals and poor outcomes. Team cognition is cognitive processing at the team level through interactions among team members and is reflected in dynamic communication and coordination behaviors. Although the patient received multidisciplinary care as needed in a medically complicated case, a lack of team cognition and, particularly, inconsistent communication among the dynamic teams caring for the patient, led to mixed messages being delivered with high-cost implications for the health-care system and the family. This article highlights concepts and recommendations that begin a necessary in-depth assessment of implications for clinical care and initiate a research agenda that examines the effects of team cognition on HCT teams, and, more generally, critical care of the patient with cancer.

AbstractIntroductionOral mucositis is regarded by patients as one of the worst and debilitating complications of conditioning and hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Prevention of mucositis is one of the priorities of supportive therapy during and after conditioning.ObjectivesThe primary objective of the study was the analysis of efficacy of keratinocyte growth factor (KGF, palifermin) used in prophylaxis of oral mucositis in patients undergoing allo-HCT. The secondary objectives of the study included the analysis of the influence of palifermin on clinical course of oral mucositis and early transplant outcomes, as well as analysis of the contraindications of palifermin in patients undergoing allo-HCT.Patients and methodsA total number of 253 allo-HCT performed between 2003 and 2018 in patients aged 0–19 years in a single center were analyzed. Overall, in 161 HCTs, palifermin was administered.ResultsPatients receiving KGF were transplanted earlier in the context of calendar year, and more often received ATG, mainly due to the higher rate of unrelated donor transplants. Allo-HCT patients who were administered palifermin had shorter time of mucositis (median: 9 vs. 13 days, p < 0.001), lower mucositis grade (median: 2° vs. 3°; p < 0.001), shorter period of total parenteral nutrition (median: 19 vs. 22 days; p = 0.018), and lower incidence of episodes of febrile neutropenia (median: 39.1% vs. 83.1%; p < 0.001).ConclusionsThe use of palifermin has decreased duration and severity of oral mucositis in children after allo-HCT. Palifermin is a safe and well-tolerated compound in children undergoing allo-HCT.
