Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Survivorship related needs include managing lingering symptoms from treatment, how to keep a healthy lifestyle, social and medical issues, as well as other needs. The mobile health app that will be used in this study is the Health Storylines TM app developed by Self Care Catalysts Inc. The app can be used for an unlimited amount of time over nine months, which is how long the study will be conducted. The use of the Health Storylines TM app in this study is investigational.

Participation in this study starts with setting up a study specific profile on the app and entering information including email address, age, ethnicity/race, cancer diagnosis, as well as other optional information for the profile (example health goals or current health conditions). Participants will then be prompted by the app to complete three questionnaires about their ability to self-manage their survivorship-related needs, their perception of their survivorship-related illness symptoms and perceived health related quality of life. They will be prompted on the app to complete these questionnaires again at the 3, 6 and 9 month intervals of using the app. It will take about 20 minutes to complete the questionnaires at each measurement time. The only additional information that will be reported from the app for the study is the amount of time and features of programs accessed during the study period.

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

This project is a longitudinal one-group pilot study evaluating the use of a Mobile Health (mHealth) app intervention. This study will examine: 1) the amount/type of usage, 2 ) compliance with study evaluations and 3) the association of this mHealth app use with perceived self-efficacy in managing survivorship related needs, perceived health illness and health related quality of life. The study period will be nine months, with four measurement points to assess the study's outcomes: baseline, three, six, and nine months post initiation of the mHealth app.
