Study Arms (2)
DREAMLAND
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will be recruited from 5 sites and randomized in 1:1 fashion, stratified by study site, to DREAMLAND versus CERENA. * Participants will use DREAMLAND and during hospitalization for treatment of AML to learn how to cope most effectively with the diagnosis of AML using an iPad provided by the study team or participant's own iPad. * Questionnaires (in-person, over the computer or telephone, or by mail) at predetermined days per protocol days.
CERENA
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants will be recruited from 5 sites and randomized in 1:1 fashion, stratified by study site, to DREAMLAND versus CERENA. * Participants will use the mobile app CERENA during hospitalization for treatment of AML to learn how to best care for themselves using an iPad provided by the study team or participant's own iPad. * Questionnaires (in-person, over the computer or telephone, or by mail) at predetermined days per protocol days.
Interventions
DREAMLAND is self-administered psychological app for patients with AML that includes four modules, focused on: 1. Supportive psychotherapy strategies to help patients deal with the initial shock of diagnosis, cope with the loss of independence and abrupt life disruptions, and provide validation and reassurance. 2. Psychoeducation to manage expectations and enhance preparedness for extended hospitalization and mobilize social support. 3. Psychosocial skill-building to promote effective coping strategies and facilitate acceptance while living with uncertainty. 4. Self-care to promote positive health behaviors and enhance patients´ sense of control especially as they transition from the hospital to outpatient care. Each module takes 20 minutes to complete. DREAMLAND also includes three optional models that also take 15 minutes to complete. Other names BNT200
CERENA is a self-administered physical health app that includes 4 modules focused, focused on: 1. Education about general wellness. 2. Nutrition. 3. Exercise. 4. Cancer prevention. Each module takes 20 minutes to complete. CERENA also includes three optional modules that also take 15 minutes to complete.
