NP-111: Myeloma Treatment Scheduler (MyeTxScheduler): an online educational tool to help keep patients on track

Introduction An increasing number of complex treatment regimens are utilized for the management of multiple myeloma (MM). Treatment schedules include multiple drugs, supportive measures, pathology tests and clinician reviews, however there is no universal scheduling template for Australian use. The Myeloma Specialist Practice Network (M-SPN) of the Haematology Society of Australia and New Zealand (HSANZ) works toward improving quality nursing care and outcomes for individuals with MM. Aim: To develop an online tool for clinicians to create individual MM treatment schedules to be printed and provided to patients to aid understanding, improve adherence and enhance myeloma patient care Method The M-SPN partnered with a health technology platform, myINTERACT to develop and deliver the online tool MyeTxScheduler. A nurse member working group developed content based on Cancer Institute NSW Cancer Treatments Online (eviQ) and real-world clinical experience. Standard MM protocols are included with ability to amend as clinically indicated. Patient identifiers are not included but added after printing. A recent update improved speed, functionality, added new standard protocols and provides links to additional patient information. 3 Haematologists and 2 oncology pharmacists provided content review. Patients provided input on final schedules. Results MyeTxScheduler is distributed through HSANZ membership but available to all clinicians as free download on iOS / Android tablet devices or online populating through the myINTERACT digital platform. 26 standard protocols provide pre-populated MM schedules. Users can amend each item, save, edit and clone schedules. Capacity to add additional drugs and amend notes allows flexibility for real world clinical application.
