Study Summary

This trial will explore a new telehealth training program to help kids with cancer and their caregivers. 10 kids and their caregivers will be enrolled at the University of Michigan.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for children aged 8-18 who have completed cancer treatment at least 6 months ago, show attention or executive functioning deficits, and can speak English. It's not for those with developmental, behavioral, mood disorders, traumatic brain injury or seizures, or a history of pediatric brain tumor.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests a telehealth cognitive training program designed to help kids who've had cancer improve their attention and problem-solving skills. It involves the child and caregiver in a single group without comparison to other treatments.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this is a non-medical intervention focusing on cognitive training via telehealth sessions, there are no direct physical side effects like you'd expect from medication; however, participants may experience fatigue or frustration.
