Cancer treatments, especially chemotherapy, often require
substantial demands on patients and their informal caregivers, including
managing an overwhelming amount of information to coordinate treatment and
related activities. Comprehensive coordinating efforts are needed to manage
chemotherapy treatments that usually include a complex schedule and are
associated with significant or even disabling side effects. Additionally,
diagnostic testing and other therapeutic modalities (e.g., surgery and
radiation) may require multiple visits with different providers at various
locations. Managing the tasks and schedule may be challenging, combined with unstable
medical problem appearances and fluctuating energy levels.
