简要总结
This trial studies an internet-based intervention for skin self-examination (SSE) in participants at increased risk for melanoma. Early detection of suspicious growths on the skin can be done by performing regular SSE checks. Using an internet-based intervention, such as mySmartCheck, may help to promote regular, thorough checks on the skin in individuals at increased risk for melanoma.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the impact of mySmartCheck versus usual care on skin-self-examination (SSE) behaviors among individuals at increased risk for developing melanoma.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate the impact of mySmartCheck versus usual care on patients barriers and benefits to conducting SSE, SSE self-efficacy (confidence), level of worry about developing melanoma, and number of health care consultations (visits, telephone calls, and emails).
II. To evaluate whether mySmartCheck effects are moderated by the patient's Total Body Photography (TBP) status.
