SBIR PHASE II TOPIC 377: ENABLING CLINICAL DECISION SUPPORT FOR GUIDELINE-BASED CANCER SYMPTOM MANAGEMENT (MOONSHOT)

该提案的目的是开发一种临床决策支持工具（CDS-Sx），该工具将利用国家临床实践指南为临床医生提供循证指南，以管理和监测癌症患者的痛苦症状。该工具旨在使用经验证的患者报告结局调查在诊所预约之前直接从患者收集信息，并在电子病历的背景下向临床医生提供针对患者的建议。该项目的结果将提供一个基于标准的癌症症状管理工具，该工具将在全国范围内可扩展和共享，以改善对令人痛苦的癌症相关症状的管理，并降低癌症患者的发病率，死亡率和成本。

The objective of this proposal is to develop a clinical decision support tool (CDS-Sx) that will leverage national clinical practice guidelines to provide evidence-based guidance to clinicians for the management and surveillance of distressing symptoms in patients with cancer. The tool is designed to collect information directly from patients prior to clinic appointments using validated patient-reported outcome surveys and to provide patient-specific recommendations to clinicians in the context of the electronic medical record. The results of this project will provide a standards-based cancer symptom management tool that will be scalable and sharable across the nation to improve the management of distressing cancer-related symptoms and reduce morbidity, mortality and costs for patients with cancer.
