A Checklist (Advanced Care Planning) for The Assessment of Mobility Needs in Patients With Sarcoma

Description

This trial tests how well the advanced care planning around mobility needs checklist tool works to assess future mobility needs in patients with sarcoma. Gathering information about sarcoma patients that have had surgery to either save or remove a limb may help doctors learn more about a patient's mobility needs. Using an advance care planning mobility needs assessment may help improve the quality of life in patients with sarcoma by helping them plan for their future mobility needs.
