Implementing REmote SymPtom mOnitoring and maNagement (RESPONd)
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Cancer
In brief
The goal of this study is to understand if the implementation of a remote symptom monitoring and management program improves outcomes. The program will provide patients the opportunity to complete electronic Patient Reported Outcomes (PROs) questionnaires from home between appointments and receive tailored advice from a study nurse. A second goal of this study is to examine the impact of electronic symptom monitoring on clinic efficiencies. The main question it aims to answer is: • What impact does implementing digitally enabled remote symptom monitoring and management (RESPONd) between ambulatory oncology visits have on patient outcomes and system efficiencies? Participants will: * Report their symptoms and concerns from home by completing the electronic symptom monitoring questionnaire. * Discuss their symptoms and concerns with a study nurse. * Provide feedback about their experience at important timepoints during the study. * Participate as usual in ambulatory clinic appointments.
