Summary

This trial will test how well a new iPad-based treatment works for people with cognitive problems after a heart transplant.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and young adults aged 6 to 21 with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) who have undergone stem cell transplantation. Participants must be able to understand and consent to the study, or have guardians who can. There are no limits on previous treatments, but pregnant individuals or those with serious medical issues that could interfere with the trial cannot join.
What is being tested?
The study tests an iPad-based cognitive rehabilitation program designed for pediatric patients recovering from a stem cell transplant due to ALL. The focus is on how feasible it is for participants to follow this program and how their brain function scores change after treatment and over time.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves cognitive exercises using an iPad, there are no direct physical side effects like you'd expect from medication. However, fatigue or frustration may occur if tasks become challenging.
