Improve Cancer Symptom Management in Ambulatory Oncology practices: experiences from the IMPACT consortium
NCI Division of Cancer Control and Population Sciences shared an article by Nadine Jackson McCleary on LinkedIn:
“The NCI’s Healthcare Delivery Research Program (HDRP) invites you to read a recent paper entitled, “Bridging clinical informatics and implementation science to improve cancer symptom management in ambulatory oncology practices: experiences from the IMPACT consortium.”
Co-authored by Drs. Sandra A. Mitchell, Roxanne Jensen, and Ashley Wilder Smith this paper highlights the crosstalk required between informatics and implementation scientists within the Improving the Management of symptoms during And following Cancer Treatment (IMPACT) Consortium to scale up the use of electronic health record (EHR)-based symptom surveillance and evidence-based symptom management interventions in routine oncology care.
HDRP promotes research that aims to understand the experiences of people affected by cancer and to facilitate optimal care and outcomes across the care continuum. Funded by the Cancer Moonshot, HDRP leads efforts supporting research that would “minimize cancer treatment’s debilitating side effects” via the Consortium.
IMPACT is designed to evaluate the implementation of systematic symptom management in cancer care delivery. The consortium’s overall goal is to develop evidence that will guide efforts to improve symptom control for cancer patients during treatment and survivorship to build a foundation for effective cancer symptom management in routine clinical care.
