What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating the Screen of Cancer Survivorship - Occupational Therapy Services (SOCS-OTS) tool in a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation clinic setting to see how well it identifies cancer patients needing occupational therapy (OT) services. The study aims to compare SOCS-OTS to another standardized screening measure currently used at MD Anderson Cancer Center, assessing its sensitivity, specificity, predictive values, and reliability. The research also explores relationships between OT needs and factors such as cancer stage and treatment. Participants will complete the SOCS-OTS, a 20-item questionnaire, along with two other questionnaires and a short interview about their ability to perform daily tasks. This observational study involves diagnostic testing of the screening tool and does not involve treatment interventions. The study period includes follow-up for safety and adverse events over approximately one year. During the study, participants will be assessed through questionnaires and interviews to collect information on their functional status and OT needs. Researchers will monitor safety and adverse events throughout the study, averaging one year of participation. The study collects demographic and clinical data to analyze associations with OT referral likelihood and test-retest reliability of the SOCS-OTS tool.
