abstract: 'Background: Most efforts to advance cancer survivorship care have
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
occurred in Western countries. There has been limited research towards
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gaining a comprehensive understanding of survivorship care provision in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the Asia-Pacific region. This study aimed to establish the perceptions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of responsibility, confidence, and frequency of survivorship care
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
practices of oncology practitioners and examine their perspectives on
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
factors that impede quality survivorship care.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Methods: A cross-sectional survey of hospital-based oncology
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
practitioners in 10 Asia-Pacific countries was undertaken between May
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2015-October 2016. The participating countries included Australia, Hong
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Kong, China, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Singapore, India, Myanmar,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and The Philippines. The survey was administered using paper-based or
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
online questionnaires via specialist cancer care settings, educational
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
meetings, and professional organisations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results: In total, 1501 oncology practitioners participated in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
study. When comparing the subscales of responsibility perception,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
frequency and confidence, Australian practitioners had significantly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
higher ratings than practitioners in Hong Kong, Japan, Thailand, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Singapore (all p < 0.05). Surprisingly, practitioners working in Low-and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mid-Income Countries (LMICs) had higher levels of responsibility
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
perception, confidence and frequencies of delivering survivorship care
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
than those working in High-Income Countries (HICs) (p < 0.001), except
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
for the responsibility perception of care coordination where no
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
difference in scores was observed (p = 0.83). Physicians were more
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
confident in delivering most of the survivorship care interventions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
compared to nurses and allied-health professionals. Perceived barriers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to survivorship care were similar across the HICs and LMICs, with the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
most highly rated items for all practitioners being lack of time,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
dedicated educational resources for patients and family members, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
evidence-based practice guidelines informing survivorship care.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conclusions: Different survivorship practices have been observed between
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
HICs and LMICs, Australia and other countries and between the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
professional disciplines. Future service planning and research efforts
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
should take these findings into account and overcome barriers identified
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in this study.'
