Official Title: Phase 2 Study of Early Discharge and Outpatient Management of Adult Patients Following Intensive Chemotherapy for MDS and Non-APL AML

Brief Summary: This phase II trial studies how well early discharge and outpatient care works in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia previously treated with intensive chemotherapy. Gathering information about patients with myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia who are discharged after finishing chemotherapy, or who stay in the hospital until blood counts return to normal, may help doctors learn more about the safety of allowing patients to leave the hospital early, the patient's quality of life, use of medical services, and the cost of these services associated with such a policy.
