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 study is a single-center, randomized, participant- and observer-masked, human-subjects, post-market clinical pilot study to investigate the use of ultrasound-guided percutaneous cryoneurolysis to treat diabetic neuropathy of the foot. A prolonged nerve block may be provided by freezing the nerve using a technique called "cryoneurolysis". With cryoneurolysis and ultrasound machines, a small needle-like "probe" may be placed through anesthetized skin and guided to the target nerve to allow freezing. The procedure takes about 6 minutes for each nerve, involves little discomfort, has no systemic side effects, and cannot be misused or become addictive. Participants will be randomly allocated to one of two possible treatments groups: cryoneurolysis (experimental) or sham (control). The primary outcome measure is the change in pain on the neuropathic pain scale from baseline 1 month following the procedure.

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.
