简要总结
The PI and the research team developed the New York University (NYU) Electronic Patient Visit Assessment (ePVA) for head and neck cancer (HNC) as a patient-reported outcome measure (PRO) for the early detection of uncontrolled symptoms. The ePVA is digital patient-reported symptom monitoring system, providing actionable information at point-of-care that enables clinicians to provide real-time interventions. The study aims to advance the science of cancer care delivery by testing the effectiveness of the ePVA as a digital patient-reported monitoring system for patients with HNC in real-world settings and identify implementation strategies that optimize the effectiveness of the ePVA in diverse rural and urban settings. The study hypothesis is that participants assigned to the ePVA arm will have better swallowing, taste and smell, and social function than participants assigned to usual care arm at 4 weeks after completing radiation therapy.

结局指标
主要结局
Head and neck cancer (HNC) symptoms as assessed by the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) Quality of Life Questionnaires (QLQ)
时间窗: 4 weeks after completing radiation therapy
The EORTC QLQ-C30 and QLQ-H\&N35 will be used to measure head and neck cancer symptoms, such as social function, senses of taste and smell, and swallowing. The scores will be summed and then transformed to a single score ranging from 0=Best to 100=Worst.
次要结局
- Pain as assessed by EORTC QLQ-H&N35 Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ)(4 weeks after completing radiation therapy)
- Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) as assessed by the EORTC QLQ-C30 Quality of Life Questionnaire (QLQ)(4 weeks after completing radiation therapy)
- Acute Care Services Use as assessed by number of acute care visits(4 weeks after completing radiation therapy)
- Acute Care Services Use as assessed by number of days of using acute care(4 weeks after completing radiation therapy)
