How Should Oncologists Choose an Electronic Patient-Reported Outcome System for Remote Monitoring of Patients With Cancer?

Electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) systems for symptom monitoring in patients with cancer have shown quality of life and survival benefits in controlled trials. They are beginning to be used in routine oncology practice. Many software developers provide software solutions for clinicians, but...

description Electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) systems for symptom monitoring in patients with cancer have shown quality of life and survival benefits in controlled trials. They are beginning to be used in routine oncology practice. Many software developers provide software solutions for clinicians, but how should clinicians decide which system to use? We propose a synthesis of the main questions regarding the effectiveness, safety, and functionality of an ePRO system that a clinician should ask software providers to assist in the selection of a software product in order to obtain the best value tools for their patients and their practice.
