RECRUITING

An Enhanced Home-Based Telemedicine Program Using Remote Examination Devices for Children With Medical Complexity

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

The purpose of this study is to assess if the benefits for children with medical complexity (CMC) receiving comprehensive care (CC) in an enhanced medical home can be further improved by enhanced telemedicine program (ETM) provided during clinic hours using mobile devices to measure temperature\& oxygen saturation, auscultate the heart \& lungs, and view the skin, throat, \& tympanic membranes in the home.
