Abstract

In this review, we aim to assess the current state of science in relation to the integration of patient-generated health data (PGHD) and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) into routine clinical care with a focus on surgical oncology populations. We will also describe the critical role of artificial intelligence and machine-learning methodology in the efficient translation of PGHD, PROs, and traditional outcome measures into meaningful patient care models.
