Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Rate of patients who have germline genetic tests

    Measurement of genetic testing uptake in breast, ovarian, pancreatic, and prostate cancer patients randomized to pre-genetic test (pre-test) in-person counseling with a genetic counselor per standard of care or video education.This comparison will use a two-sided Fisher exact test

    Up to 3 years

Secondary Outcomes (9)

  • Patient Satisfaction Survey following intervention

    Immediately following intervention

  • Result Disclosure Preference following intervention

    Immediately following intervention

  • Patient Satisfaction 2 months following intervention

    after results have been received, two months post-intervention

  • Psychological distress following intervention

    after results have been received, two months post-intervention

  • Knowledge about genetics testing

    Immediately following intervention

  • +4 more secondary outcomes
