Summary
Brief summary
Non-professional carers (typically family members) play a critical role in providing adequate home care. This research explores the use of wearable sensors (WS) and electronic patient-reported outcome (ePRO) surveys to monitor stress levels of advanced cancer patient/carer dyads. During wear times, WS-triggered ecological momentary assessments (EMAs) were conducted via short smartphone-based surveys. This pilot study investigates the feasibility of EMAs in community palliative care.
