Overview
Brief Summary
To explore the feasibility and best methodology for collecting patient-reported outcome measures in patients who have previously been treated for cancer and are living in the community.
The investigators are working with primary care research teams, and using an online electronic questionnaire. Although the study is entirely observational, the study offers some of the questions in a random order, so the investigators can explore the effect of changing the way in which questions are asked.
Detailed Description
INDIGO Community aims to both collect data on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMS) and patient-reported experience measures (PREMS) and data on the impact of how to do this. The focus is on adult patients living in the community who have previously been treated for cancer. The study uses a range of quality of life questionnaires, and randomises the order in which some questions are asked, in order to explore the impact of how questions are asked on responses. All patients with be offered the EuroQol 5 dimension, 5 level questionnaire (EQ5D-5L)
