Summary
This trial studies how well the Remotivation Process in an occupational therapy program works in improving adherence to lymphedema treatment programs in patients with breast cancer-related lymphedema. Lymphedema treatment programs are well developed and effective, but adherence to these programs are an issue. The Remotivation Process is a series of techniques that helps guide discussions between occupational therapists and their patients based on their level of motivation. This study uses the Remotivation Process by gathering patients' thoughts about their experience with lymphedema and occupational therapy services to determine their motivation and learn about the barriers they face in order to improve adherence to these programs.
Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. How does remotivation process change daily performance of the lymphedema management techniques? (Quantitative Study) II. How does the Remotivation Process affect the client's manifestation of breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL)? (Quantitative Study) III. How does the Remotivation Process affect the client's occupational participation and quality of life? (Quantitative Study) IV. What are the perspectives of patients with BCRL about the self-management program after participating in an occupational therapy using the Remotivation Process? (Qualitative Study) V. What are the perspectives of patients with BCRL about their arm after the occupational therapy program? (Qualitative Study) VI. How do patients with BCRL describe their daily life after occupational therapy? (Qualitative Study)
- OUTLINE
Patients participate in a discussion with an occupational therapist via videoconferencing over 15 minutes once weekly (QW) for 4 weeks about their experience with lymphedema and the occupational services they received. After 4 weeks, some patients may also participate in an interview with an occupational therapist via videoconferencing over 60 minutes. During the first week of the study, patients also receive occupational therapy per standard of care.
After completion of study, patients are followed up at 1 month.
