CAPhO 2024 Concurrent: Overview of the Interactive Patient Communication Portal Pilot Project Within Quebec to Proactively Identify and Manage Toxicity of Anti-Cancer Therapies
Presentation Summary:
The interactive patient communication portal project is a pilot project to incorporate routinely assessed patient reported outcomes to proactively identify and manage toxicity for oral anti-cancer therapies. We used the Quebec telehomecare platform already deployed across the province to create symptom tracking algorithms and have personalized this monitoring based on prescribed therapies and the cancer associated with them. More than 200 patients used this platform during the year of the pilot project and this project highlighted the very high relevance of offering this type of monitoring to this population. The result of this pilot project will be presented during this conference.
Learning Objectives:
1. Describe the interactive patient communication portal project
2. Recognize the type of patients who could benefit from such approach
3. List the key steps in establishing and implementing this platform and describe some of the possible challenges
4. Discuss potential future direction for this kind of follow-up strategy
