Mobile Health Application (PACT) to Improve Engagement in Advance Care Planning

Официальное название

Planning Advance Care Together (PACT) to Improve Engagement in Advance Care Planning

Обзор

This clinical trial tests a new mobile health application (app) called Planning Advance Care Together (PACT) to help people with cancer talk about and plan for advance care planning (the care they would want if they were unable to communicate) with their loved ones and doctors. The development of the PACT mobile app may help future patients incorporate their social network (typically, but not exclusively, family) into the advance care planning process.

Подробное описание

OUTLINE: Patients and support persons are randomized to 1 of 2 arms.

ARM I: Participants use PACT mHealth app for up to 4 weeks and receive one check-in call on study.

ARM II: Participants engage in standard care with no modifications for up to 4 weeks.

After completion of study intervention, participants are followed up at 3 and 6 months.
