简要总结
The purpose of this study is to develop and test a model of patient navigation that investigators hope will address the unique needs of adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer patients and their families by minimizing barriers in their care and potentially improving the outcomes of their treatment while reducing distress and enhancing quality of life. Investigators plan to achieve this by increasing access to, and use of, the resources available at Moffitt Cancer Center for AYA patients and their families.
详细描述
Up to 80 participants may be recruited to this study at Moffitt Cancer Center to obtain a final sample size of 60 completed participants.
Participants will be identified in consultation with the patient's primary oncologist and program social worker. A research assistant (RA) will verify eligibility and consent eligible patients.
After completing a baseline questionnaire, participants will be randomly placed into one of two groups. Both groups will receive their normal care, but one group will also meet with a patient navigator. Participants in both groups will be asked to complete a follow-up questionnaire approximately 8 to 10 weeks from when they complete the baseline questionnaire. The follow-up questionnaire will take about 15 to 20 minutes to complete.
Participation in the study will last about 10 weeks.
