Study Overview

Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to see if it is feasible to use electronic questionnaires to measure patient related outcomes before, during, and after radiation for gynecologic cancer in a high-volume radiation oncology clinic.

Detailed Description

Other studies have found benefits from using patient related outcome measurements (PROM) in clinical settings, and a paper PROM is part of standard of care treatment for prostate cancer patients at the University of North Carolina clinic. However, PROM are not routinely collected for gynecological cancer patients at UNC, and fewer studies have specifically focused on PROM for gynecological cancer patients receiving radiation. The primary objective of this study is to determine the feasibility of PRO monitoring of gynecologic symptoms before, during (at weekly intervals), and after radiation (external beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy) for gynecologic cancer patients at a high volume center.
