Condition
Oncology
Key Mechanisms
Integration of electronic patient-reported outcome measures (ePROMs) into routine care for symptom monitoring and management.
Target Population
Cancer patients requiring symptom management.
Care Setting
Health care settings implementing electronic health interventions.
Key Highlights
ePROMs are associated with improved health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and reduced hospital admissions.
Implementation of ePROMs faces challenges due to sociotechnical factors.
Conventional cost-effectiveness analysis methods are inadequate for ePROM interventions.
Health economic evaluations of ePROMs are scarce despite their potential benefits.
ePROMs can facilitate patient-centered care by addressing symptom burden and emotional distress.

Patient & Prescribing Data
Patients with cancer undergoing treatment.
ePROMs may lead to significant improvements in symptom management and resource use.
Clinical Best Practices
Utilize electronic platforms for patient-reported outcomes to enhance routine care.
Incorporate automated self-management guidance and real-time alerts in ePROM systems.
Address sociotechnical barriers to improve the implementation of ePROMs in clinical settings.
