Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • English-speaking/reading/writing
  • Able to complete questionnaires (including by proxy)
  • Family Caregivers (FCGs) must self-identify as being a primary FCG of a patient with a primary brain tumor, secondary (metastatic) brain tumor, or leptomeningeal disease diagnosis. A primary caregiver is a family member, friend, or other unpaid person who provides at least some care for a patient at home.
  • Patients must be diagnosed with new or recurrent primary brain tumor, a secondary (metastatic) brain tumor or leptomeningeal disease within the last 9 months, receiving at least some evaluation and/or care at Moffitt (i.e. at least one appointment), have a prognosis of at least 9 months

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients may not participate without a consenting FCG, but FCGs may participate without a consenting patient
  • Patients and FCGs who are experiencing acute distress will be excluded from enrollment and referred directly to social work, per Moffitt policy.

Treatment and study plan

eSNAP

Behavioral

eSNAP is a web based tool that quickly collects and organizes social support information entered by Family Caregivers (FCGs) into visualizations of the size, quality, and function of support networks. Visualizations can help FCGs catalogue support resources and present them in a new way, which may make them more salient and remind FCGs of their availability.

Other names: Electronic Social Network Assessment Program

Caregiver Navigator

Behavioral

The Caregiver Navigator will have social work training and will help Family Caregivers (FCGs) identify and leverage informal and formal social support, including enrolling or directing FCGs to services.

Primary outcomes

  1. Family Caregiver Well-Being Using GAD-7 Scale

    Time frame: 8 weeks per participant

    Caregiver well being will be measured using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7 Item Scale (GAD-7). The GAD-7 measures anxiety scoring 0-3 points per item, with a total score range 0-21,with a higher score meaning more anxiety.

  2. Family Caregiver Well-Being Using PHQ-8 Scale

    Time frame: 8 weeks per participant

    Caregiver well being will be measured using the Personal Health Questionnaire Depression 8 Item Scale Scale (PHQ 8). The PHQ 8 measures depression scoring 0-3 points per item, with a total score range of 0-24, with the higher score meaning more depression.

  3. Family Caregiver Well-Being Using Zarit Burden Interview

    Time frame: 8 weeks per participant

    Caregiver well being will be measured using the Zarit Burden Interview. The Zarit Burden Interview measures burden scoring 0-4 points per item, with a total score range of 0-48, with the higher score meaning more burden.

  4. Neuro Patients Well-Being Using GAD-7 Scale

    Time frame: 8 weeks per participant

    Neuro patients well being will be measured using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7 Item Scale (GAD-7). The GAD-7 measures anxiety scoring 0-3 points per item, with a total score range 0-21,with a higher score meaning more anxiety.

  5. Neuro Patients Well-Being Using PHQ-8 Scale

    Time frame: 8 weeks per participant

    Neuro patients well being will be measured using the Personal Health Questionnaire Depression 8 Item Scale Scale (PHQ 8). The PHQ 8 measures depression scoring 0-3 points per item, with a total score range of 0-24, with the higher score meaning more depression.

  6. Neuro Patients Well-Being Using NeuroQol

    Time frame: 8 weeks per participant

    Neuro patients well being will be measured using Neuro-Qol (Neuro Quality of Life) which will be using T scores where the lower values represent worse outcomes. 50 indicates the population mean with a standard deviation of 10.
