Arm Label

remote follow-up

Arm Description

patients with chronic disorders on sequelae of anti-cancer treatments after an intensive rehabilitation stay will undergo 5 months of remote follow-up with speech therapists including questionnaires and interview

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

patient attendance at monthly remote monitoring
Attendance will be evaluated by measuring the rate of patients who participated in at least 3 webvisions out of 5 and at the final visit in face-to-face consultation, compared to the number of patients included.

Secondary Outcome Measures

felt swallowing
The feeling of swallowing will be evaluated with the Deglutition Handicap Index (DHI), a swallowing handicap self-assessment questionnaire. ranking from 30 to 150, 30 corresponding to no handicap swallowing, and 150 being the worst handicap to swallow

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The study will assess the feasibility of monthly post rehabilitation remote monitoring, using the "MAX Educ" webvision app, in patients with sequelae of aerodigestive cancer treatments.
Detailed Description
The patients included in the study will benefit from a monthly video follow-up via the WEB tool "MAX Educ" during the first 6 months of their discharge from the rehabilitation center. They will be contacted each month during 5 months by the CRIL speech therapist for an interview (20 to 30 minutes). The interview will take place in 2 stages; at first, a discussion phase, during which the speech therapist will take simple news of the patient. The second phase, more formal, will be the opportunity to collect the data necessary for the validation of the secondary endpoints. To do this, the speech therapist will use the Deglutition Handicap Index (DHI) and an interview grid. The interview will be conducted using an interview sheet previously written by the project team. The following elements will be discussed: the perceived swallowing handicap (DHI), the instructions related to diet and their daily application, ongoing rehabilitation follow-ups, notable events as well as his psycho-emotional experience in relation to said disorders. After signing the consent and verifying the eligibility criteria, all patients will be assessed upon discharge from the rehabilitation center by means of video swallowing fluoroscopy, allowing the deglutition score to be established. EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ) QLQ-30 and its annex H & N35 and the DHI will also be completed at the inclusion visit at T0. They will then be monitored monthly by video from Month 1 to Month 5. During the end of research visit at 6 months, all the patients included will be reviewed in follow-up consultation with a doctor and a speech therapist within the intensive rehabilitation center for laryngectomees (which corresponds to the standard follow-up) and evaluated by video swallowing fluoroscopy. EORTC QLQ-30, EORTC QLQ-H & N35 quality of life questionnaires and the DHI will also have to be completed.

Remote follow-up
Intervention Description
The feeling of swallowing will be assessed at the end of the stay at the rehabilitation center, which corresponds to the first visit, and then every month for 5 months during remote interviews and on discharge with the Deglutition Handicap Index (DHI), a self-assessment questionnaire for the swallowing handicap. The quality of life will be assessed at the firs visit and 6 months after using the EORTC QLQ 30 quality of life scale and the H&N annex, a self-assessment questionnaire on the quality of life for people with cancer of the head and neck. The satisfaction of users and the interest of city health professionals in the use of the "MAX Educ" tool as part of a monthly monitoring will be collected via the TUQ questionnaire, through the MAX platform at Month 6.
