Head and neck cancer patients' recollection of their clinical characteristics.

Patient-reported outcomes (PRO) are an important component of treatment evaluation. Typically they are completed by patients on paper, but through advances in technology such as mobile phone apps and websites, there is a great opportunity for electronic completion. It can be challenging, particularly at a regional or national level, to maintain accurate core clinical records on head and neck cancer (HNC) (baseline, recurrence, second primary, and further treatment), and these will influence PROs and the reporting of outcomes.
