- From September 2018 to September 2019, 1,075 cancer patients used the NTT service, reporting a variety of TRAEs, which were graded by trained oncology nurses.
- The results showed a significant decrease in hospitalization rates from 14.7% in 2017-2018 to 10.1% in 2018-2019, leading to an estimated cost savings of 345,246 euros.
