About this study

Official title: Implementation and Evaluation of an Activity Based Program to Improve Quality of Life Outcomes in Women Diagnosed With Cancer

Implementation and Evaluation of an Activity Based Program to Improve Quality of Life, Pain and Fatigue Outcomes in Women Diagnosed With Cancer. Demonstrate improved life satisfaction, decreased pain and decreased fatigue (with evidenced gathered at three consecutive periods Quality of Life, Pain and Fatigue surveys).

Read the detailed description

This research study will focus on developing and implementing two one-week activity camps in the summer of 2016 for women diagnosed with cancer. One camp will be held in West Philadelphia and another in Camden, New Jersey, both of which have been identified as underserved areas for health access. The focus of this programming is to allow women to engage in activities they may not be engaged in since the diagnosis of cancer and to provide them with opportunities to socially interact and communicate with individuals who may have encountered the same difficulties as them. Quality of life, pain and fatigue information will be collected before, during and after implementation of the activity program. The main objective is to demonstrate improved life satisfaction, decreased pain and decreased fatigue (with evidenced gathered at three consecutive periods and geographical locations through Quality of Life, Pain and Fatigue surveys). The intended sample size is 57 women.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Canadian Occupational Performance Measure Scores at Day1, Day 5 and Week 6 (time frame: Day 1, Day 5 and week 6). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
