| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In 2018, I developed the Cancer Pain Self-Management Tele-Nursing System.
In 2019, I conducted the "Phase 1: Verification of the effectiveness of the tele-nursing system for cancer pain relief in advanced cancer patients: usability evaluation of the system by healthcare providers and patients" as a study of the effectiveness of the system, and found the system to be "easy to understand" and "reliable" in terms of its "structure" and "content". The evaluation was favorable.
The system has been used to conduct a "Phase 2: Efficacy of a Tele-Nursing System for Cancer Pain Relief in Advanced Cancer Patients: A Randomized Controlled Trial" "Phase 3: Usability evaluation of a tele-nursing system for the intervention group in an RCT" from 2019 to present.The study had to be temporarily suspended due to the spread of infection by COVID-19 and is still ongoing.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
外来通院にて在宅療養中の疼痛をもつ進行がん患者は、自己報告型の評価 Patient-Reported Outcome(e-PRO)を用いることで、セルフマネジメント能力の向上が見込まれる。さらに、疼痛高度の場合にアラートシステムにて早期発見されることで、在宅においても安心した療養が可能となる。本研究で開発したはelectronic PRO(e-PRO)であり、European Society for Medical Oncology(ESMO)においては癌診療においてePROを用いることが推奨された。未だ日本のがん診療におけるePROの知見は明らかではなく、研究成果の社会的意義は大きい。
