- W4387207922 abstract "Patients (pts) commonly present to radiation oncology with painful bone metastases requiring urgent palliative radiotherapy (RT). Unfortunately, the pre-existing scheduling workflow for palliative referrals can be inefficient, causing significant delays before pts are seen by a radiation oncologist (RO). Our institution implemented an alternative workflow, which led to the creation of an advanced practice provider (APP) led Rapid Access Palliative RT Clinic (PRC). We investigated the impact of the PRC in reducing time from referral to consultation for pts in need of palliative RT.In March 2022, we initiated an outpatient APP led PRC focused on the APP driving consultations supervised by the weekly on-call RO. Pts are offered a variety of options for consultation such as virtual, in clinic with reserved simulation time, and when appropriate virtual simulation, using diagnostic imaging for RT planning, and same day treatment requiring only one visit to the department. The clinic provides a point of contact that fosters multidisciplinary interaction and proactive continuity of care and follow up. Following institutional review board approval, pts who received palliative RT for painful bone metastases from June 2021 to December 2022 were retrospectively reviewed. Data was collected with respect to when the referral was placed for palliative RT and when the pts was seen for consultation by a provider. The cohort of pts seen between June 2022 and December 2022 represented the PRC cohort. A comparison cohort of pts treated between June 2021 and December 2021 represented the pre-PRC cohort. Unpaired T-test was used to analyze time from referral to consultation (TTC) between groups. P value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.During the pre-PRC period, 91 patients were treated, including 12 inpatients and 79 outpatients, while during the PRC period, 101 pts were treated, including 7 inpatients and 94 outpatients. The median dose was 8 Gy in 1 fraction for both cohorts. During the PRC period, there was a 19% increase in outpatients treated for bone metastases. Restricted to just outpatients, the average TTC was 10.4 days (SD 10.2) for pre-PRC cohort versus 6.3 days (SD 6.6) for the PRC cohort, which was statistically significant (p = 0.003). This was a 39% reduction in TTC. During the PRC period, 17 pts were not seen in the APP led PRC while 77 were seen in the PRC. The most common reason was an erroneous referral for curative intent treatment instead of palliative bone treatment. During the PRC period, those pts seen in the APP led PRC had an average TTC of 5.1 days (SD 4.6) versus 11.5 days (SD 10.64) for those not seen in the PRC (p = 0.03) with a 56% reduction in TTC.The APP led PRC clinic significantly decreased time from referral to consultation for pts requiring urgent palliative RT for painful bone metastases. Further research is underway to determine if the PRC increases referrals, patients treated, patient satisfaction, and the impact on staffing RO." @default.
