Evaluation of Cardiovascular Health Outcomes Among Survivors

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Cardiovascular Risk, Cancer

In brief

This study will test a 2-tiered tailored intervention and evaluation of cardiovascular health outcomes among survivors designed to inform childhood cancer survivors about their individual cardiac risk and follow-up recommendations and to provide motivational support for cardiovascular (CV) screening. This study will test if the addition of telephone motivational interviewing, tailored to behavioral constructs, is superior to the current standard of care in increasing survivors' CV screening.
