摘要

Background

Structured assessment of symptoms and distress is an essential component of modern oncology. The oncological baseline screening recommended in the survey tool for cancer centers is designed to consolidate several validated instruments. To reduce extent and redundancies, the interdisciplinary working group on Patient-Reported Outcomes in Supportive Care (IAG PRO-S) of the German Cancer Society (DKG) has developed a minimal set as a new patient-reported outcome measure (PROM). This set covers all relevant dimensions and may serve as a foundation for interprofessional supportive care.

Objective

Implementation and pre-test of the new minimal set in routine clinical practice.

Methods

At the Comprehensive Cancer Center of the Rems-Murr-Klinikum Winnenden, the minimal set was introduced into routine practice in the first quarter of 2025 and evaluated by patients as well as healthcare professionals.

Results

Patient feedback indicated high acceptance with minimal burden. All professional groups involved evaluated the screening positively. Oncology nursing staff in particular reported significant added value, as the results could be used to prepare counseling sessions in a targeted manner. Psychooncology and social work also benefited from a rapid overview of patient-reported problems. Physicians, however, made only limited use of the results.

Conclusion

The minimal set as a PROM is feasible in clinical practice, fosters interdisciplinary collaboration, and supports targeted patient care. A prerequisite for successful implementation is close cooperation between all professional groups involved in supportive care.
