Objectives: Psychosocial distress is common in cancer patients and survivors and encompasses a broad range of concerns and psychological symptoms. The aim of the current study was to identify subgroups of respondents who experience a specific constellation of distress symptoms.Methods: This study uses data from a large data base (n = 21 680) of cancer patients from diverse settings who provided data in the Questionnaire on Distress in Cancer Patients-Short Form (QSC-R10). Cluster analysis was applied to identify subgroups with a distinct constellation of distress symptoms. Results:The results showed five distinct clusters: minimally distressed patients (46.6% of the sample), highly distressed patients (12.7%), mainly physically distressed patients (15.2%), mainly psychologically distressed patients (15.6%), and mainly socially distressed patients (9.9%). These groups differed with regard to age, sex, cancer site, treatment setting, and disease progression. Conclusion:The results revealed large heterogeneity in the experience of distress.Distress clusters were associated with socio-demographic and clinical variables.These associations might aid a clinician to tailor interventions and to address specific types of distress.

“…One explanation for these lower numbers could be that a specific definition of 'psychosocial distress' has not been determined, which is why distress is often assessed within the scope of psychiatric disorders (e.g. anxiety disorders) or reduction in quality of life (23). The prevalence of distress is therefore somewhat incomparable between different studies unless the same definitions are applied.…”

“…All enrolled participants were screened for psychosocial distress using the Basic Documentation for Psycho-Oncology Short Form (PO-Bado SF) (23) at three defined time points (T1-T3): T1 (basic hospital assessment): within the course of inpatient admission to the orthopedic ward prior to surgery; T2 (repeat hospital assessment): after surgery on the day before discharge from the surgical ward; T3 (follow-up assessment): during clinic review, 3 months after the operation. PO-Bado screening was performed at all time points by orthopedic doctors who were trained in conducting the standardized interview according to the published guidelines prior to the start of this study (23). Patients who exceeded the defined cut-off value of more than 9 points in the PO-Bado SF were assumed to be highly psycho-oncologically distressed and were offered psychosocial support.…”

“…A total score of 8 or greater on the PO-Bado SF is recommended to recognize patients with clinically relevant distress [ 17 ], however it has not been validated in brain tumor patients so far. Marten-Mittag et al conducted an analysis comparing – inter alia - the Distress Thermometer (DT) values of 1551 cancer patients (clinically relevant distress: DT > 4) and the results of PO-Bado SF results scored by physicians and found a total score of 9 or greater to be optimal [ 18 ]. However, in the patient sample there were rare brain tumor patients.…”

ObjectivePsychosocial screening in brain tumor patients is of high importance. We applied The Basic Documentation for Psycho-Oncology Short Form (PO-Bado SF) in primary brain tumor patients and patients with metastasis. The aim was to evaluating consistency between physicians' perception and the results of the patients' self-assessment.Materials and Methods140 patients with first diagnosis of a brain tumor were screened during their hospital stay (t1) using Distress Thermometer (DT) and Hornheide Screening Instrument (HSI), health-related quality of life was assessed by EORTC QLQ-C30 + BN20. After 3 (t2) and 6 months (t3), patients were re-evaluated. Attending neuro-oncologists completed the PO-Bado SF at all three time points (cut-off for being in need for support >8).ResultsAt t1, the mean of the PO-Bado SF total score was 7.71 (SD = 4.08), at t2 8.22 (SD = 5.40) and at t3 7.62 (SD = 5.72).The proportion of patients reaching a total score >8 was at t1: 43%, at t2: 41% and at t3: 47% (t1–3). Discrimination of PO-Bado SF total score, between patients in (DT ≥6) and those not in distress was more sensitive (cut-off 8.5, AUC 0.772, sens. 71.3%, spec. 67.6%) than discrimination compared to the HIS (cut-off 9.5, AUC 0.779, sens. 65.1%, spec. 77.7%). Higher PO-Bado-SF total score correlated with higher DT scores (r = 0.6, p < 0.0001) and lower EORTC GHS scores (r = −0.55, p < 0.0001).ConclusionPhysicians' perception according to PO-Bado SF provides a different measure for psychosocial burden in patients with brain tumors, however does not completely reflect patients' wishes.
