简要总结
This randomized pilot clinical trial studies how well the Sarcoma Treatment Guide works in improving self-monitoring in patients with sarcoma who are receiving chemotherapy. The Sarcoma Treatment Guide may help patients with sarcoma to be better informed, become more engaged with care, encourage communication, and to better manage side effects associated with chemotherapy treatments in order to improve quality of life.
详细描述
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To evaluate whether symptom management and communication are improved in patients who are chemotherapy naive who receive a Sarcoma Treatment Guide as compared to those that have not.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To explore whether patients who have previously undergone chemotherapy benefit from a Sarcoma Treatment Guide (STG) in regard to symptom management and have improved communication between patient and providers.
II. To assess patient satisfaction with using the STG at the end of the trial.

Will keep notes of qualitative feedback provided by participants regarding the Sarcoma Treatment Guide (STG) obtained from the survey. Notes will be reviewed to identify common themes that will be considered when making revisions to the STG to be used by chemotherapy patients in the Sarcoma Clinic. Telephone calls will be calculated for each participant associated with symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, and pain. The calls will be logged to track quantity, reason and outcome of all participants. Symptoms ratings self-reported by patients will be tracked using the Numeri
