Evaluation of an electronic psycho-oncological adaptive screening program (EPAS) with immediate patient feedback: findings from a German cluster intervention study

ConclusionsEPAS may improve information about psychosocial services as well as utilization of and access to these services. The effect on information level seems not to be generalizable to other aspects of oncological care. Future studies should incorporate novel technologies and condense the procedure to its core factors.Implications for Cancer Survivors: The screening may help to enhance self-management competencies among cancer survivors.Trial registrationThe trial was retrospectively registered (2/2021) at ClinicalTrials.gov (number: NCT04749056).
