The PREMAC study - Developing and testing a Patient Report Experience Measure for patients accessing Acute OnCology services:

Picture1 PREMAC.png

Background: Hospitals have established structured pathways for managing patients with oncological emergencies through acute oncology (AO) services.
Whilst some Trusts have developed local questionnaires specific to that service there is no survey available to measure and compare patient experience across NHS trusts. This study will co-design a patient-reported experience measure (PREM), intended to be adaptable for use across different AO service models.

Study Aim: To develop and test a PREM suitable as an audit and quality improvement tool for healthcare providers to measure patient experience of acute oncology (AO) care.

The UK Acute Oncology Society (UKAOS) is most grateful to Exact Sciences and Pfizer for their joint funding support of the Society in its inaugural year; the support from Pfizer was in the form of an unrestricted educational grant. The companies have had no influence on the set up of UKAOS.
