Abstract

Purpose: To gather information from clinicians on how geriatric oncology models of care have emerged in different European countries and describe current practice in this clinical area.

Methods: A semi-structured online interview was performed, exploring aspects related to implementation, perceived quality of care, and professional satisfaction.

Results: The centers participating in this interview showed significant differences in terms of resource allocation, team members, components of the comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA), and CGA-driven interventions. High levels of professional satisfaction were expressed by all participants. This was deemed a consequence of a perception of increased quality in the provision of care and enhanced educational and academic opportunities.

Conclusion: Interdisciplinary models of care in geriatric oncology, regardless of implementation details, seem to provide grounds for increased professional satisfaction and perception of better provision of quality of care. These characteristics could support promoting and further developing similar collaborations on a wider scale.

老年肿瘤学当前临床实践调查：五个欧洲癌症中心的个人经验。

目的：收集临床医生关于欧洲不同国家如何出现老年肿瘤护理模式的信息，并描述该临床领域的当前实践：方法：进行半结构化在线访谈，探讨与实施、感知的护理质量和专业满意度有关的方面：结果：参与访谈的中心在资源分配、团队成员、老年病综合评估（CGA）的组成部分以及 CGA 驱动的干预措施等方面存在显著差异。所有参与访谈者均表示对专业工作非常满意。结论：老年医学跨学科护理模式是一种新的护理模式，它可以提高护理质量，增加教育和学术机会：结论：老年肿瘤学的跨学科护理模式，无论实施细节如何，似乎都能提高专业人员的满意度，并使他们认为护理质量得到了提高。这些特点有助于在更大范围内促进和进一步发展类似的合作。
