Interventions

  • ReSPECT — BEHAVIORAL
    ReSPECT is an interactive, web-based digital platform that integrates (1) an AYA-centered pre-visit questionnaire (PVQ) that will discretely alert clinicians to relevant SRH questions/concerns, (2) targeted patient education on PVQ selections, and (3) clinician-centered guidance for addressing SRH issues. At enrollment, all participants will complete a baseline survey (T1). AYAs will have access to the ReSPECT digital platform and will receive the first prompt to complete the PVQ 3-5 days before their next clinic appointment. Once completed, AYAs will receive an email/text with a link to tailored information based on their PVQ selections for review. Clinicians will receive an email with a link to the patient's PVQ results on the ReSPECT platform along with clinical management recommendations. All participants will complete a brief virtual survey (T2) and interview within 48 hours of the first postintervention clinic visit and a follow-up survey 2 months after study enrollment (T3).

Study Details

The overarching goal is to develop and demonstrate proof-of-concept of ReSPECT (Reproductive and Sexual Health Patient Education and Communication Tool), a multi-modal communication intervention to improve adolescent and young adult (AYA)- clinician sexual and reproductive health (SRH) communication in the outpatient oncology clinic setting.
