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.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to teach patients to safely and effectively self-remove drains at home in adults (aged 18 and older) following a ventral hernia repair (VHR). Researchers will compare the group of subjects self-removing the drain at home to a control group of standard of care drain removal during a clinic visit by a provider to see if subjects are able to safely self-remove the drain at home.
