Brief Summary: Observational study to evaluate changes in quality of life (QoL) in patients diagnosed with low risk MDS who are red blood cell (abc) transfusion dependent. Changes in QoL will be correlated with patient cardiorespiratory function. Cardiac biomarkers and plasma cytokines will also be evaluated.
Detailed Description: At inclusion and before red blood cell (rbc) transfusion, patients cardiorespiratory function will be evaluated with an ergospirometer Likewise, before and after rbc transfusion, patients will be asked to complete the QUALMS, a QoL instrument which will be supplied by Dr. Gregory Abel at Dana-Farber in the U.S., who led its development team. Before and after rbc transfusion, hemoglobin, pretrasfusional hemoglobin, pre and post cardiac biomarkers troponin and NTproBNP will be collect.Pre and post serum and plasma will also be collected for cytokine analysis.
