简要总结
At Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, the investigators have developed a novel curriculum for a 6-week psycho-educationally-based, cognitive behavioral program to help patients with subjective cognitive complaints after cancer treatment, titled Emerging from the Haze™ (Haze). Each series meets once a week for 2-2.5 hours for 6 weeks.
The objective of this study is to quantify the impact of a trainee-taught Emerging from the Haze course on gynecologic cancer survivors' self-report of cognitive changes based on the change of FACT-Cog score.
