Detaljert beskrivelse

This is a prospective, two-arm, single-center randomized controlled pilot trial of a cancer rehabilitation program for older adults, titled the 'CARE program,' which is designed to maintain and/or improve functional status and quality of life in older adults diagnosed with cancer. Adults aged 65 years and older with cancer will be screened with a Geriatric Assessment (GA) for eligibility. Although breast cancer patients will be eligible, this study will focus primarily on other types of cancers. Adults with at least one functional deficit --defined as impairment in ability to perform activities of daily living or instrumental activities of daily living, cognitive decline or balance -- will be randomized to either the intervention (CARE program) or to the control arm (Supportive care services information only). Both arms will receive a brochure about the supportive care program to provide patients who we've identified as having deficits with information about auxiliary services available and because the intent is to limit the difference between the groups. We hypothesize that patients who participate in the CARE program will maintain or improve functional status and quality of life when compared to supportive care services information only.

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: CARE Intervention
This group will be contacted to make an appointment for outpatient Occupational and Physical therapy. The therapist will determine the type, frequency and length of treatment. Follow up phone calls will be made to ensure appointments are made, kept and rescheduled as needed.
OT and PT will be arranged for the subject and conducted in a manner as determined by the therapist.
Ingen inngripen: CARE Control
Patients randomized to this arm will receive contact information and a brochure outlining the services available within the supportive care program. The study coordinator will provide the information based on their results and assist the patient with contacting the program if desired.
