Psychological, Physical and Functional Importance of Patient Reported Outcomes Among Cancer Outpatients

Conclusions:Many cancer patients visiting the cancer center had high pain/discomfort, anxiety/depression, problems with usual activities and mobility problems. Younger patients (31-50 years) had more distress and depression (ET). African Americans reported more problems with mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression (EQ5D). Those with self-care problems were at risk to require help with tablet-based surveys.DisclosuresNo relevant conflicts of interest to declare.
