Cross-sectional survey identifies unmet supportive care needs in cancer patients, survivors, and caregivers, suggesting integrated care.
This study showed distinct patterns of unmet supportive care needs among patients, survivors, and caregivers, with patients reporting the highest unmet needs-particularly emotional, informational, and practical-and caregivers exhibiting profiles closely overlapping those of patients. Present findings support the implementation of integrated, person- and dyad-centered care throughout the cancer continuum. Longitudinal studies are needed to monitor evolving unmet needs and assess dyad-centered intervention models.
