Family Practice Jul 27, 2021
White V, Der Vartanian C, Tansley F, et al. - Since there exist barriers to participation of women in the shared breast cancer follow-up care model, researchers undertook this study with females who recently completed active treatment for early breast cancer, for exploring responses of these women to a proposed model of shared follow-up care to ultimately know the type of information required to support participation. This analysis involved 31 women aged between 32 and 78 years. Findings revealed that information about the evidence for the effectiveness of shared follow-up care is required to be provided to women in order to guarantee them it does not pose a risk to their health outcomes. Requisites for the adoption of the model include clear descriptions of general practitioner and specialist roles as well as the opportunity to jointly decide participation.
