Need Analysis of Clinician-Oriented Integrated Precision Oncology Decision Support Tools: Qualitative Descriptive Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The rapid advancement of next-generation sequencing has significantly expanded the landscape of precision medicine. However, health care professionals face increasing challenges in keeping pace with the growing body of oncological knowledge and integrating it effectively into clinical workflows. Precision oncology decision support (PODS) tools aim to assist clinicians in navigating this complexity, yet their current functionalities only partially address clinical needs. A lack of comprehensive needs assessment may result in unaddressed requirements, limiting the effectiveness of these tools in real-world practice.

Objective

This study aimed to explore clinicians' needs and expectations regarding the functionalities of integrated PODS tools, providing insights into
