Longitudinal needs and cancer knowledge in Swiss childhood cancer survivors transitioning from pediatric to adult follow-up care: results from the ACCS project
Our transition model improved cancer knowledge, especially the risk for late effects, decreased cancer worries, and identified expectations for LTFU care which should be considered in the future. A structured transition process with evidence-based tools further increases the knowledge of CCS for LTFU through empowerment.
