About this trial
Childhood cancer survivors who received certain treatments are at a higher risk of developing heart problems in the future. This study is looking at ways to educate childhood cancer survivors about that risk and encourage them to receive a recommended heart screening test.

Treatments tested in this trial
Survivorship Care Plan + Educational Materials (delivered via CIAS platform)
BehavioralParticipants receive a personalized survivorship care plan and educational materials about cardiomyopathy risk and screening recommendations. Materials are delivered via the CIAS platform and include infographics, treatment summaries, and general information about screening.
Healthy Hearts eHealth Program
BehavioralParticipants receive the same SOC materials plus a tailored, interactive eHealth intervention delivered via the CIAS platform. This includes avatar-led motivational interviewing (MI), survivor video vignettes, interactive modules addressing perceived barriers, self-efficacy, and goal setting. The intervention is designed to mimic MI counseling in a scalable format.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Number of Participants who Received Cardiomyopathy Screening at 12 months between Participants Randomized to the Healthy Hearts eHealth Intervention group as compared to the standard of care.
This outcome will be measured through self-reported questionnaire at 12 months along with confirmation through medical record review.
Difference in Precursors to Cardiomyopathy Screening at 12 months between Participants Randomized to the Healthy Hearts eHealth Intervention group as Compared to the Standard of Care.
This outcome will use questions included in the baseline and 12 month questionnaire to calculate the differences in precursors to cardiomyopathy screening (perceived barriers, knowledge, motivation, beliefs, self-efficacy) at 12 months between participants randomized to Healthy Hearts eHealth Intervention vs participants assigned to standard care.
