Distress Associated with Coronavirus Disease 2019 and Telehealth on Supportive Care Patients with Advanced Cancer

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 19 Sept 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study assesses the level of distress felt by cancer patients due to the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Researchers also want to learn if patients prefer to receive supportive care (palliative care) in person or through telemedicine (visits by phone or video call, such as Zoom). Information from this study may help doctors better understand how COVID-19 has affected patients with advanced cancer, patients' perceptions of telehealth, and may help clinicians tailor care to patients' needs during the pandemic.
