| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study is to improve the quality of home-based care support for gynecologic cancer survivors (cervical cancer and endometrial cancer) by (1) developing a system for regular evaluation and the collection of electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO), and (2) examining longitudinal changes in patient-reported outcomes (PRO); including symptoms, functioning, and quality of life (QOL) after hospital discharge. For (1), characteristic terms were extracted from the textual data of electronic medical records. Most of these terms were related to complications and side effects; however, concerns about cancer recurrence and returning to work were also identified. Regarding (2), the development of the ePRO evaluation system proved difficult to validate within the current study period. Therefore, further development will continue as an ongoing task to be addressed in the next fiscal year.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
子宮がんは再発率が高く、療養期の婦人科がんサバイバーのPRO(症状・機能・QOL)を継続的に観察する重要性が指摘される。しかし本邦では、長期的支援に有効なePROツールの検討は乏しい。本研究による、婦人科がんサバイバーの療養生活におけるPROを定期測定可能とするePROシステムの開発は、異常の早期発見や迅速な対応を促進するだけでなく、個別ニーズに基づく療養支援の実現を可能とし、さらに収集データは地域連携や支援政策の基礎資料として活用され、看護の質向上に寄与すると考える。
