Brief Summary

Nowadays, the recommended approach for decision-making for oncology patients is based on multidisciplinary meetings (MDT). However, the quality of decision-making during MDT depends on other factors such as the quality of presentation of clinical cases, the degree of participation of different specialists. In this study, the investigators will evaluate the decision-making during digestive oncology MDT using the validated "Metric Of Decision-Making" tool (MDT-MODe), in the national institute of oncology (Rabat, Morocco).

Conditions

Decision Making; Quality of Health Care; Neoplasms/Therapy; Patient Care Team

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• MODE-MDT scores

  The scores of the Metric Of Decision-Making tool during multidisciplinary team meeting for digestive cancer. The instrument include 10 questions rated from 1 to 5. Higher scores indicate better results. The instrument include questions about the quality of clinical information (History, radiological, pathological, comorbid health conditions, psychosocial issues, and patients' views) and the contribution to team decision making of key professional groups (Surgeons, physicians, oncologists, nurses, allied healthcare professionals, radiologists, pathologists and MDT coordinators) ans a question about the decision (Clear, deferred, no decision. Each question is analyzed separately (mean, median, standard deviation, quartiles).

  60 days from the multidisciplinary team meeting
