free full access: The anxious wait: assessing the impact of patient accessible EHRs for breast cancer patients



Conclusions

Participants generally found the portal easy to use; however, the perceived value of improved participation was not detected in the self-efficacy scores. Having access to personal health information did not increase anxiety levels. While these results suggest that the use of this PHR (personal health records) may be of benefit for informing patients, further research is required to investigate the impact on the experiences of patients, their participation in their care, their relationships with the health care team, and their health outcomes.
