Outcomes and satisfaction after delivery of a XXXX survivorship care plan: results of a multicenter trial.

@entity5 @entity1 @entity17938 @entity0
PURPOSE: Survivorship care plans (SCPs) have been suggested to reduce fragmentation of care experienced by @entity5 survivors. Acceptance of SCPs is high, but trials in the United States are few. This pilot study used a quasiexperimental design to examine the outcomes achieved by @entity0 survivors receiving a standardized @entity17938 visit at one of seven comprehensive @entity5 centers. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Outcomes were assessed before and again 3 months after delivery of an @entity17938 and included survivors' use of and satisfaction with SCPs, perceived knowledge about survivorship, and assessment of the quality and coordination of survivorship care. RESULTS: One hundred thirty-nine survivors of @entity0 completed baseline and follow-up measures and received a standardized @entity17938 visit. @entity1 most commonly used @entity17938 materials to make decisions about exercise (64%), which tests to receive and when (62%), and dietary changes (62%). Only 21% shared the @entity17938 with their primary care provider during that time. Satisfaction with the @entity17938 was high, with 90% of @entity1 reporting being at least satisfied with the @entity17938 . Perceived knowledge about survivorship improved after @entity17938 delivery, as did perceived care coordination and the provider's knowledge of the effects of @entity5 on survivors (all P < .001). Individuals closer to the time of diagnosis reported greater satisfaction with and use of SCPs. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates improvements in perceived knowledge and quality of survivorship care after receipt of a comprehensive @entity17938 . Survivors were satisfied with their @entity17938 , and those closer to diagnosis reported greater satisfaction with and use of the materials.
