Article Synopsis
- This study evaluated patient engagement in remote symptom monitoring (RSM) programs for cancer, focusing on racial diversity among participants, as previous research showed low representation of racial minorities.
- Out of 883 patients approached for RSM between May 2021 and May 2023, only 6% declined participation; however, Black patients were over three times more likely to decline compared to White patients, despite similar rates of being approached.
- The findings suggest that Black patients and those from disadvantaged neighborhoods face challenges in engaging with RSM programs, indicating a need for further investigation to address barriers to equitable participation.
Purpose: Remote symptom monitoring (RSM) using electronic patient-reported outcomes enables patients with cancer to communicate symptoms between in-person visits. A better understanding of key RSM implementation outcomes is crucial to optimize efficiency and guide implementation efforts. This analysis evaluated the association between the severity of patient-reported symptom alerts and time to response by the health care team.
