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.
This clinical trial studies how well new adhesive-based sensors that stick to the skin (transcutaneous) work in detecting cancer-related long-term arm swelling (lymphedema). For many patients, lymphedema s painful, unsightly, and weakening. The early signs of lymphedema are hard to see, and sometimes it is only diagnosed by hospital equipment at larger centers. Treating lymphedema early is usually more successful than trying to treat in later stages. The adhesive-based sensors used in this study work by using techniques called photoplethysmography (PPG) and bioimpedance (BI). PPG is an optical technique that can be used to detect blood volume changes in tissue. BI evaluates how tissue responds to an externally applied electrical current. This study may assist researchers in distinguishing participants with lymphedema in comparison to participants without lymphedema, and develop a way for patients to check for lymphedema at home.

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.
