Trajectories of participation in daily life among individuals newly diagnosed with cancer: A 5-month longitudinal study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To determine how participation in daily life is impacted during the first six months following a new cancer diagnosis and to identify risk factors for participation restrictions. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were used to suggest referrals to rehabilitation services.

Methods

Participants (n = 123) were adults (> 18 years) with the newly diagnosed primary brain, breast, colorectal, or lung cancer. PROs were collected at baseline (within 30 days of diagnosis/treatment initiation), two and five months post baseline. Daily life participation was assessed through the community participation indicators (CPI) (score range: 0-1) and patient-reported outcome measurement information system (PROMIS) ability to participate, (score range: 20-80; mean: 50, SD: 10).
