In Brief
A clinical study evaluating MyChemoCare iPad application for Colon Cancer and Rectal Cancer. Completed, enrolled 16 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This research project addresses critical gaps in cancer symptom management through the creation of a mobile chemotherapy symptom management application. This application will assess for the presence and severity of common chemotherapy side-effects and provide personally tailored symptom-related video and narratives to enhance self-management of cancer and treatment-related symptoms. This study will examine patient acceptance and use of this mHealth application (called MyChemoCare) in a prospective trial of cancer patients (n=60) who are receiving chemotherapy for colorectal cancer at the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center.
