Computer Symptom Capture Tool

C-SCAT is an investigator developed app that is delivered via an iPad. The original CSCAT included the 30 symptoms from the Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale. The recently updated version includes two additional symptoms "feeling bloated" and "sexual dysfunction" that are included in the adult version of the MSAS.21 These symptoms were added based on feedback from the initial AYA sample of 13-29 year olds and in consideration of the developmental perspectives of the AYA population.The CSCAT allows the user to create an image of his or her symptom experience.
