Abstract
This integrative review explored and described published research findings focused on the experiences of pediatric sibling hematopoietic stem cell donors. After a comprehensive search, nine studies met the inclusion criteria of the study. There was no evidence of coordinated programs of research to effectively advance and build knowledge about the experiences of pediatric sibling donors. The limited descriptive evidence revealed that differences in the experiences of sibling donors vary by age and developmental stages; however, the use of small or repeated samples and qualitative methods limited the generalizability of study findings. Collaborative research using prospective, longitudinal designs will build and advance the evidence base for the design of developmentally appropriate interventions for pediatric sibling donors and their families.
