Geriatric Cancer Patients Clinical Trial
Official title:
Chatbot Powered G8 Screening Intervention
In this prospective quality improvement study, we will develop and evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of an online patient self-reported G8 screening tool which will allow us to efficiently identify G8 positive older cancer patients to be referred to our Senior Adult Oncology Center (SAOC) for a Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (CGA).
We will test the feasibility and acceptability of the online G8 screening tool developed. 100 older new established cancer patients who had used the MyChart G8 will be recruited to provide their feedback on the usability of the screening tool and any related referral and SAOC appointment experience. Among patients with G8 scores ≤ 14, they will be referred to a CGA. We will examine CGA attendance compliance, predictive value of the online collected G8 score with the final frailty designation determined by the CGA, and perceived barriers among CGA non-adherent patients via a brief follow up inquiry. ;
