Existence of late-effects instruments for cancer survivors: A systematic review.

Taken in totality, none of the studies adequately addressed the prevalence, etiology, characteristics, management, and prevention of late effects. There is currently no comprehensive questionnaire that captures all of the relevant details of late effects across the cancer survivorship continuum nor that tracks the interrelatedness of multiple late effects. Hence, it is difficult to identify, diagnose, manage, and ultimately prevent late effects.
