Trial Information

Electronic Patient-Reported Outcomes From Home in Patients Recovering From Major Gynecologic Cancer Surgery: Measuring Symptoms and Health-related Quality of Life


Inclusion Criteria:



- Participants must be 18 years or older

- Participants must be able to provide informed consent

- Participants must be scheduled to undergo laparotomy for presumed or known
gynecologic cancer

- The assessments were designed and validated in English and are not currently
available in other languages. Translation of questionnaires into other languages
would require reestablishing the reliability and validity of these measures.
Therefore, participants must be able to communicate in English to complete the tests.
Participants must be able to speak and read English fluently

- Participants must have access to a home computer, have a personal email account, and
check email at least once weekly by self-report

Exclusion Criteria:

- Patients who have a cognitive or psychiatric deficit resulting in an inability to
provide meaningful informed consent, as judged by the consenting professional, and/or
as noted in the medical record

- Patients who are undergoing pelvic exenterative surgery (with the exception of
patients undergoing modified pelvic exenteration in the context of debulking for
ovarian or uterine cancer).

Type of Study:

Observational

Study Design:

Observational Model: Cohort, Time Perspective: Prospective

Outcome Measure:

To determine whether electronic capture of patient-reported symptoms from home is feasible in women recovering from major gynecologic cancer surgery during the 6-week post-operative period.
