Statewide integration of electronic patient-reported outcome measures into routine oncology care: a mixed-methods implementation study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Electronic patient-reported outcome measures (ePROMs) have emerged as a crucial tool in oncology, facilitating real-time symptom monitoring, enhancing patient-centred care, and supporting data-driven clinical decision-making. In New South Wales (NSW), Australia, the Cancer Institute New South Wales led the state-wide implementation of an electronic patient reported measures (ePRM) system to integrate ePROMs into routine cancer care.

Methods

We describe the ePRM system build and implementation through the EPIS (Explore, Preparation, Implementation, Sustainment) implementation science framework. The ePRM system was iteratively developed to support real-time symptom monitoring, automated alerts, and integration with oncology information systems (ARIA, MOSAIQ). A phas
