Primary Objectives: 1. To compare levels of patient anxiety, pain, and satisfaction associated with optical spectroscopy procedures and MDC with the levels associated with colposcopically-directed biopsy in the cervical cancer diagnostic setting and with Papanicolaou smear in the screening setting. This aim will be addressed in Studies A and A' -- Procedure-Related Distress and Patient Satisfaction. 2. To evaluate differences in psychological distress, satisfaction, and adherence to treatment in the two arms of a randomized trial; one group will be diagnosed with usual care procedures (Papanicolaou smear and colposcopically-directed biopsy) plus optical spectroscopy and the second will receive usual care. Aim 2 will be accomplished in Study B -- Psychological Distress, Satisfaction, and Adherence Outcomes in a Randomized Trial of Optical Spectroscopy. 3. To assess the psychosocial and behavioral impact of a false positive screening result. This will be done in Study C -- Impact of False Positive Screening Test on Psychological Distress and Future Screening Intentions. 4. To assess provider receptivity to optical spectroscopy. Aim 4 will be accomplished in Study D -- Survey of Health Care Providers.
The primary objectives are to: 1.1 identify and compare the experiences of minority and nonminority caregivers, including the prevalence and severity of physical (fatigue, sleep disturbance) and psychologic (depression, anxiety, stress) symptoms and their influence on caregiver symptom burden; and to 1.2 assess the relationship between caregiver's symptoms (physical and psychologic) and the patient's symptom's at multiple time points over the patient's treatment regimen for advanced solid tumors (lung, breast, cervical, and others). A secondary objective is to: 1.3 describe the experience of being a minority (African American/Black or Latino) or nonminority person caring for a medically underserved patient with advanced solids tumors (lung, breast, cervical, or others) over the course of the patient's treatment regimen and follow-up clinic visits.
