Understanding the influences and impact of patient ‐clinician communication in cancer care

ConclusionsTransparent linkages between key conceptual domains and the influence of methodological approaches on observed patient outcomes are needed to advance our understanding of how and when patient‐clinician communication influences patient outcomes. The proposed conceptual model and classification framework can be used to facilitate the translation of empirical evidence into practice and to identify critical gaps in knowledge regarding how and when patient‐clinician communication impacts care outcomes in the context of cancer and health care more broadly.
