Study Summary

In congruence with the National Cancer Institute's commitment to supporting families of individuals with cancer across the full disease trajectory, the investigators seek to examine the feasibility of a technologically-mediated problem-solving intervention designed to improve the quality of life and decrease the psychological distress of family caregivers of cancer patients receiving outpatient palliative care. Investigators involved in this mixed methods pilot study will collect and analyze both quantitative and qualitative data, which will subsequently inform a large-scale randomized clinical trial of the problem-solving intervention.

Primary Outcome

Family caregivers indicate the frequency with which they experience seven different symptoms of anxiety (7 items); higher scores reflect higher anxiety severity.

Interventions

  • BEHAVIORAL Problem-Solving Intervention
  • OTHER Unenhanced Monitoring
