Evaluating the Feasibility of an Electronic Patient-Reported Outcomes Platform Integrating Electronic Health Records and a Mobile Messaging App in Breast Cancer Radiotherapy: Retrospective Cross-Sectional Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Integrating electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePROs) into electronic health records (EHRs) can enhance the quality of patient care. However, collecting longitudinal ePRO data throughout treatment and posttreatment surveillance remains challenging in patients with breast cancer. To address this, we implemented an automated system that enables ePRO acquisition and seamless integration into the EHR. The system delivers questionnaire weblinks via a mobile messaging app, allowing patients to complete ePROs before clinic visits, with responses automatically transferred to the EHR.

Objective

This study aimed to assess patient response rates to the ePRO system and identify key factors influencing the response rate among patients with breast cancer who received radioth
