Evaluation of an interactive electronic patient-reported outcome (e-PRO) system in outpatient with oral chemotherapy.

696 Background: Health Information Technology (HIT) is increasingly integrated in clinical cancer care. Simultaneously routine assessment of patient reported outcomes (PROs) has been shown to reliably improve symptom management, identification of psychosocial problems and patient-provider communication. Methods: This study is a single center experience of a multicenter randomized study for the development and validation of an interactive e-PRO tool (RemeCoach). After obtaining informed consent, outpatients, using oral anti-cancer treatment, recorded their medication intake and 17 clinical parameters using this E-PRO tool. The device allowed real time data collection and communication with other care providers via a central platform. The registered data were processed by an algorithm, this algorithm stratifies the data into different grades according to international standards of care (CTCAE v4.0) and clinical importance. Patient clinical and demographic information is collected from medical records and an...
