Communication and Information Needs of Women Diagnosed With Ovarian Cancer Regarding Treatment-Focused Genetic Testing

Abstract

Knowing that women do want TFGT, how they want it presented and by whom, and the content and level of detail that women want means that TFGT can now be presented as an option to women newly diagnosed with ovarian cancer, which may influence firstline treatment. The findings also provide the knowledge required to prepare education tools to assist oncology nurses involved in frontline care.
