- W4387206670 abstract "Shared decision making is integral to the physician-patient relationship for radiotherapy (RT) patients. It is implicit that patients both comprehend and retain information explained during consultation. However, quality and quantity of patient knowledge following this visit is unknown. The purpose of this study was to evaluate post-consultation RT knowledge and health literacy among a diverse group of patients.Participants were patients ≥18 years old who received consultation for definitive or salvage RT to the prostate gland/fossa between April 2021 and January 2023 at an urban safety-net hospital. Following consultation, patients completed the Radiation Oncology Knowledge Assessment Survey (ROKAS), designed to measure patient understanding of proposed RT treatment (e.g., treatment frequency, length, safety) and possible short- and long-term side effects (SE). Additional measures included patients' health literacy, health numeracy (numerical medical concepts), acculturation (assimilation to the dominant culture), and socioeconomic factors. ROKAS was administered in both English and Spanish with Spanish-speaking patients offered medical translation if desired. Bivariate Pearson correlations were conducted to examine the relationships between independent variables and post-consultation RT knowledge. Two-sided t-tests were conducted to examine differences in patients' knowledge by language.Overall, 39 ROKAS were completed by 24 English-speaking and 15 Spanish-speaking patients (mean age 64.4 [SD 6.8], range 52-79). The majority (93%) of patients 'agreed' or 'strongly agreed' that they understood all the RT information presented. However, only 70% of the RT questions were answered correctly with 26% of patients answering all RT questions correctly. Similarly, 95% of patients 'agreed' or 'strongly agreed' with knowing the side effects of their proposed treatment, but only 71% and 74% of short- and long-term SE questions, respectively, were answered correctly. Higher health literacy (p = 0.04) and health numeracy (p = 0.001) were significantly correlated with better understanding of short-term SE, but not with RT knowledge or long-term SE. Spanish-speaking patients had significantly lower scores of health literacy (p = 0.001) and understanding of long-term (p = 0.01), but not short-term SE.There is a significant gap between perceived and measured knowledge of RT treatment and SE in patients who receive consultation for RT to the prostate gland/fossa. Health literacy was significantly associated with improved knowledge of RT and short-term SE. Spanish-speaking patients had poorer understanding of long-term SE than English-speaking patients. Efforts to identify gaps in patient health literacy are needed to target those at risk and ensure that culturally diverse patient populations can engage in shared decision making with their providers." @default.
