Brief Summary:
This trial studies how well a parenting skills intervention works in improving medication adherence in pediatric cancer patients. The parenting skills intervention provides support and skills training to parents who administer medicine daily to their child and may improve the childs taking of medications correctly as prescribed by the doctor. Ultimately, this may improve treatment outcomes, among children who are experiencing an illness.
Detailed Description:
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To pilot test a novel parenting intervention. II. To examine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the parenting intervention on child medication adherence among children who are experiencing an illness.
OUTLINE: Participants with poor medication adherence are randomized to 1 of 3 groups.
EARLY GROUP: Participants continue medication adherence monitoring over 1 week and then receive parental skills intervention sessions consisting of 4 integrated components: creating consistent medication routines, education in child management strategies, strategies for helping children adhere to medication, and training in specific parental behavioral techniques over 30 minutes weekly for 4 weeks.
DELAYED GROUP: Participants continue medication adherence monitoring over 2 weeks and then receive parental skills intervention sessions consisting of 4 integrated components: creating consistent medication routines, education in child management strategies, strategies for helping children adhere to medication, and training in specific parental behavioral techniques over 30 minutes weekly for 4 weeks.
LATE GROUP: Participants continue medication adherence monitoring over 3 weeks and then receive parental skills intervention sessions consisting of 4 integrated components: creating consistent medication routines, education in child management strategies, strategies for helping children adhere to medication, and training in specific parental behavioral techniques over 30 minutes weekly for 4 weeks.
