Abstract P3-08-08: Pattern of use of an online primary health care information resource for breast cancer survivorship education: The pink ribbon survivors network

Abstract

Abstract Introduction: The Pink Ribbon Survivors Network, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded by cancer professionals, developed an online educational resource for breast cancer survivors, cancer care professionals, and primary health care providers. The organization created a separate online educational library for each of these three separate audiences. The organization's website launched in July, 2012. Methods: The Primary Health Care Library for breast cancer survivorship education houses 15 unique categories. Utilizing the organization's administrative website, numerical pattern of access of each separate listing in the 15 categories can be obtained. In addition, Google Analytics data was utilized to determine total website activity for all three educational libraries. Results: As of abstract submission, the Primary Healthcare Breast Cancer Survivorship Education Library contains 141 clinical articles in 15 categories. The website has been utilized in all 50 of the United States, and in 66 countries and 890 cities. The five most viewed categories of the 15 total categories are (in descending order): 1.) Lifestyle Modifications, 2.) Creating a Link between Cancer Care and Primary Care: Clinical Literature on Survivorship, 3.) Depression/Mood Disturbance, 4.) Consensus Panel Guidelines for Breast Cancer Follow up, and 5.) Gynecologic Issues: Sexuality/Fertility. Conclusion: Since it's creation in mid- 2012, an online breast cancer survivorship resource is being utilized for educational review. Users of the website are preferentially interested in QOL, healthcare system, and Consensus guidance in their educational viewing. This system can be utilized to disseminate nationally recognized clinical advice for Primary Healthcare Providers as they care for breast cancer survivors in their routine healthcare practices.
