Anticancer treatment | Studies which explore how decisions to use UEC (or not) might differ for people treated with curative intent and comparative studies of help-seeking by people receiving different anticancer treatments |
Understudied populations | Studies of people with complications of advanced cancer known to often require UEC (e.g. metastatic spinal cord compression), people with haematological cancers, and people with cancer and multimorbidity |
Roles of social networks | Studies that explore the roles undertaken by informal caregivers when navigating UEC and how help-seeking might differ for those living alone or with fragile social networks |
System-level help-seeking | Studies which explore how people make sense of UEC systems and how the availability, accessibility, and acceptability of (differently organised) specialist and non-specialist services might influence help-seeking |
Contingency planning | Studies of how people prepare for complications of cancer and its treatment (including fine-grained understanding of how people use information about UEC) and how this might influence service use |
