Background:
Interventional oncology (IO) has become a key oncology subspecialty, emphasizing patient-centered care (PCC) to prioritize individual patient needs, preferences, and values throughout treatment.
Objectives:
In radiation oncology, PCC aims to enhance patient satisfaction and quality of life by tailoring treatments to individual needs.
Methods:
This article explores the implementation and outcomes of PCC in IO, and reviews case studies and research on PCC strategies, such as person-centered nursing, shared decision-making, and communication.
Findings:
PCC in IO improves patient satisfaction, emotional well-being, and quality of life. Effective communication, shared decision-making, and the involvement of patient care teams support these outcomes. However, challenges remain in uniformly applying PCC, with some studies having mixed results in patient experiences and hospital use, suggesting that additional tailored interventions are necessary for widespread implementation.
