CANCER, CARDIOVASCULAR COMPLICATIONS, PCP, CHILDHOOD CANCER
In this cross-sectional study including 293 survivors of childhood cancer at high risk for cardiovascular complications, participants’ PCP records had infrequent documentation referencing a cancer history (67.6%) or a need for late-effects surveillance (32.4%), and only 21.5% of participants records had a completed or planned echocardiogram in the prior 2 years. Factors associated with up-to-date cardiac screening included documentation of increased cardiovascular risks or a late-effects surveillance plan.
