What to monitor
The symptom set depends on the regimen, population and research question. A universal questionnaire without a clinical owner can increase burden without improving safety.
- Symptoms and functional impact using a suitable instrument.
- Treatment-cycle context and prespecified events.
- The minimum necessary passive measures.
- Contact, review and action by the authorised team.
Why a backup route matters
Participants must know when not to wait for a digital response. Hours, expected response time, clinic contact and emergency instructions are communicated before monitoring starts. This public website is not a care channel.
Outcomes for a pilot
- Completion and device-wear rates.
- Time from signal to review.
- Signals requiring action.
- Patient and staff burden.
- Prespecified care-use or quality-of-life outcomes only when the design supports them.
