PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 8 weeks

Population: Only 19 people in each arm out of the 23 and 24 that completed the study actually completed the information for this measure. Thus only 19 are analyzed.

Pain is measured on the numerical rating scale of 0 - 10 where 0 is no pain and 10 is worst imaginable pain.

Timeframe: 8 week

Population: Only 19 in the people in the online self-management group of the 23 that completed the study actually completed the information for this measure. Thus only 19 are analyzed. No participants in the control group were administered this measure because the questions pertained to the acceptability and satisfaction of the online self management program.

The Adapted Acceptability E- Scale contains 7 items that are scored on a 1 - 5 scale, with a score of 1 representing low ratings of acceptability and satisfaction with the online self management program, and a score of 5 representing high ratings of acceptability and satisfaction with the online self management program. This measure was only administered to individuals participating in the online self management program.

The European Organization of Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy contains three subscales: Sensory, Motor, and Autonomic. Each subscale is scored on a scale of 0 - 100, with a score of 0 representing no neuropathy symptoms and functional impairment due to neuropathy, and a score of 100 represents severe neuropathy symptoms and functional impairment due to neuropathy. Only the Sensory and Motor subscales were used in this current study.
