28. února 2017 aktualizováno: Kathleen Mooney, University of Utah

The purpose of this study was to test the efficacy of a computer-based automated symptom monitoring telephone system used by patients who received chemotherapy for their cancer to communicate unrelieved symptoms they experienced to their oncology providers.

Detailní popis
The purpose of this study was to test the efficacy of a computer-based automated symptom monitoring telephone system used by patients who received chemotherapy for their cancer to communicate unrelieved symptoms they experienced to their oncology providers.
The symptoms monitored in the project were nausea/vomiting, pain, sore mouth, diarrhea, constipation, depressed mood, anxiety, trouble sleeping, and fatigue.
The study randomly assigned participants into either the intervention group or the group that received usual care from their oncology providers without alert notifications.
All participants called the automated system daily to report their symptom presence, severity, and distress.
When participants in the intervention group rated symptoms at moderate (4-7) to severe (8-10) levels an e-mail alert report of their symptom information was sent to the participant's medical oncologist and oncology nurse.
The usual care group also reported symptoms daily to the automated system but their information was not sent to the providers.
Participants in the usual care group were told daily to call their oncology provider if they had concerns about their symptoms.
The two study groups were compared over chemotherapy cycles 2 and 3 on symptom presence, severity, and distress.
Functional status, patient reported degree of symptom interference with normal activities, and work attendance if they had indicated that they worked during their treatment were also recorded.
In addition, the groups were compared for the number and purpose of unscheduled patient-provider contacts, visits to the emergency department or urgent care facility, and unscheduled hospitalizations.

Experimentální: Provider Unrelieved Symptom Alert
Patients in the intervention arm called the automated monitoring system daily to report presence, severity and distress on a 1-10 scale for nine symptoms.
The system immediately sent an emailed symptom alert report to their oncologist and oncology nurse if symptoms exceeded preset thresholds (moderate to severe levels).
Two thresholds were set: a simple alert when severity or distress was 4 or greater on the 10 point scale and trend alerts based on a pattern of moderate severity over several days.
|
The Provider Unrelieved Symptom Alert intervention sent an automatic symptom report to oncology providers (both physician and nurse) when the patient reported symptoms at a moderate to severe level (4-10 on a 0-10 scale).
The oncology providers used their clinical judgement in terms of what they did with the information received.
There was no prescribed response as part of the intervention.
|
Žádný zásah: Attentional Control Usual Care Group
Patients in the usual care group called the automated monitoring system daily to report presence, severity and distress (1-10 scale) on 9 symptoms and also measured symptom interference with daily activities, functional status, work attendance, and unscheduled provider visits, urgent care and emergency department visits, and unscheduled hospitalizations.
The usual care group received equivalent contact time with the automated system including identical voice and assessment questions.
Data were not available for clinical action and not reported to the oncology providers.
On every call, usual care participants were reminded to call their oncology provider if they had symptom concerns, which is the usual practice in oncology settings to address unrelieved symptoms.
