Research Abstract

The study purpose was [1] to develop and examine the feasibility of electric patient reported outcome (ePRO) system that has made it possible to measure PROs regularly and to collect them automatically for gastrointestinal cancer with diabetes. [2] It was also examined the change in PROs over time from the pre-surgery to the recuperation at home. [1] In ePRO pilot test, it found that poor visibility was caused the difficulty in PRO measurement using electronic device for elderly cancer patients aged 65 years or older. [2] Out of gastrointestinal cancers, the QOL of elderly colorectal cancer patients with diabetes mellitus had tended to be dropped largery in the first year after surgery as compared with it of non-diabetic cancer patients. It is necessary to further improve the ePRO system for practical use in medical settings.
