Healthcare Professionals’ Preferences and Perceived Barriers for Routine Assessment of Patient‐Reported Outcomes in Pediatric Oncology Practice: Moving Toward International Processes of Change

Abstract

HCPs strongly value the use of physical and psychosocial PROs within pediatric oncology practice, but mainly perceive organizational barriers for routine assessment. To successfully integrate PROs, efforts should be made to address HCP-perceived barriers, such that patient-reported problems can be detected and timely referrals made.
