This federal Project Grant award, provided by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) under the Cancer Research Manpower (CFDA 93.398) program, aims to integrate an electronic patient-reported outcomes (PROs) tool called "Goals to Discharge" (G2D) into the discharge planning process for surgical oncology patients at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. The $210,014 award, with a project period from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2029, will enable the principal investigator, Dr. Jennifer Cracchiolo, to refine the G2D tool's content and clinical decision support, plan for broad clinical adoption, and pilot test its effectiveness in reducing length of stay and improving patient readiness for discharge compared to usual care. This research, along with Dr. Cracchiolo's career development training, is expected to enhance communication and align expectations between patients and clinical teams, leading to better quality of care and outcomes for surgical oncology patients.
