Patient engagement
As in the eCCM, informed and activated patients are key to create productive interactions with the healthcare providers [Patients fill out the 37-item ePROM within the first week of ICI treatment by logging in to the online or mobile (smartphone) version of the application. They are prompted to complete subsequent daily and/or weekly questionnaires via an e-mail reminder or push notifications. Patients are made aware their answers in the ePROM will be reviewed by a team of triage nurses on weekdays between 8 and 12 pm. As part of the standard of care, patients are nevertheless encouraged to contact their oncology team directly in case any of any symptoms self-perceived as a cause of immediate concern.
