Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Knowledge Score - Before Results

    The primary outcome is the primary caregiver's knowledge score measured before receipt of genetic results. Knowledge score is a 12-point true/false questionnaire. Higher scores indicate higher genetic knowledge.

    up to 4 weeks after testing

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Knowledge Score - After Results

    Once, within 6 months after receipt of results

  • Knowledge Score - all caregivers and probands

    Twice, prior to, and within 6 months after receipt of results

  • Acceptability of use of an informational video on paired tumor/normal testing for participants with a new cancer or other diagnosis

    One time, within 6 months after receipt of results

  • Feasibility of an informational video on paired tumor/normal testing for children and adolescents with a new cancer diagnosis.

    One time, within 6 months after receipt of results

Study Arms (2)

Without Video

NO INTERVENTION

In year 1, investigators will recruit families of patients receiving the current standard-of-care approach to tumor-normal genetic testing with provider based education.

With Video

EXPERIMENTAL

In year 2, investigators will recruit families of patients receiving the updated standard-of-care approach to tumor-normal genetic testing with provider based education and an educational video.

Other: Educational Video

Interventions

Investigators will develop an informational video to be presented within one week of diagnosis of a tumor to those referred for tumor normal paired genetic testing.
