RECRUITING

New Pediatric Patching Method to Improve Compliance

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This project will assess whether there is a significant difference in compliance with patching in amblyopic patients whose parents are instructed to pinch the superior and inferior edges of the patch before applying (in order to improve comfort) versus patients whose parents are instructed to place the patch evenly around the orbit.
