ABSTRACT:

Background

Although the cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI) is a common symptom incurred by the breast cancer survivors (BCS), more emphasis is needed in identifying acceptable interventions for survivors.

Purpose

The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to examine the acceptability of cognitive programs by identifying the facilitators and barriers for implementing computerized cognitive training (BrainHQ) and computerized global cognitive stimulating-based games (e.g., computerized word-find, puzzles, etc.) comparator delivered remotely to improve CRCI from the perspective of BCS.

Methods
