Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
• Which topics and skills in which patients can contribute to safety in radiation therapy are described a) in the literature, b) by patients (representatives), and c) by healthcare professionals in routine care? • What expectations and wishes do patients and patient representatives have for such patient information, which media are suitable, and how should they be designed to convey information? • How do patients rate the newly developed patient information in radiation therapy in terms of acceptance, comprehensibility, usability, and usefulness? • How do patients rate the newly developed patient information in terms of perceived safety within radiation therapy, and what other effects (e.g., patient-centeredness, self-efficacy) could the use of patient information influence?	—
