Abstract:
Evidence-based clinical decision making in oncology is challenging. Multi-disciplinary team (MDTs) meetings are organized to consider different diagnostic and treatment options. MDT advice are often based on clinical practice guideline recommendations which can be extensive and ambiguous, making it difficult to implement in clinical practice. To address this issue, guideline-based algorithms have been developed. These are applicable in clinical practice and enable accurate guideline adherence evaluation. This ongoing study aims to determine the optimal decision-making approach for different subpopulations of patients with high-incidence gynecological cancers.
