Abstract

"Stomach cancer completely changes how we eat. Difficulty swallowing, nausea, dumping syndrome and general pain can take the joy out of eating. Weight loss and loss of appetite are common problems that people with stomach cancer experience. While it can be a challenge to cook meals that are nutritious, digestible and tasty, it is possible to enjoy food with stomach cancer." - Page 3

Abstract

Cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) may affect nearly half of all cancer survivors and can persist for years after completing cancer treatment. Memory and Attention Adaptation Training (MAAT) is a cognitive-behavioral therapy offering evidence-based, nonpharmacological treatment of this common survivorship condition. Organized into a session-by-session Clinician Manual and related Survivor Workbook, MAAT is conducted in eight treatment visits and has been demonstrated effective when delivered through telehealth technology, so survivors can readily fit MAAT into their busy lives. The MAAT Clinician Manual provides a clearly written summary of the scientific literature on CRCI and detailed guidance for each visit, including an agenda outline, in-depth discussion, and accompanying fidelity checklist in the appendix. Designed to be used in conjunction with the Survivor Workbook, the Clinician Manual also includes the full text of the workbook in a separate appendix, giving clinicians convenient one-volume access to the complete material. - Provided by publisher

Notes

Companion copy, Survivor Workbook, is available from the BC Cancer Library catalogue for patient use. See Appendix 3 in this volume for copy of workbook.
