An easy, fast, and accurate way for implementing the standards of care for the management of patients with endometrial carcinoma into daily clinical practice: the ESGO mobile app

The European Society of Gynaecological Oncology (ESGO), the European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology (ESTRO), and the European Society of Pathology (ESP) jointly published comprehensive evidence-based guidelines on all relevant issues of diagnosis and treatment in endometrial carcinoma in a multidisciplinary setting. In order to improve their implementation, a free downloadable easy-to-use mobile app was developed.Two interactive decision tools were created for (1) helping users to identify the recommended surgical steps, especially in terms of nodal staging approach based on the pre-operatively assumed risk group (tool #1), and (2) to facilitate prognostic risk group allocation and adjuvant treatment decision-making after primary surgery integrating both clinicopathological and molecular markers (if known) (tool #2). Algorithms and readable guidelines were also incorporated into the mobile app on all relevant issues of diagnosis and treatment. The scientific content presented in the app will be updated and modified in the future based on new evidence and user feedback.This article presents the decision tools and two practical examples of using these calculators to illustrate that the ESGO mobile app (available without the necessity of an internet connection) can provide fast and accurate responses to complex clinical questions that require the evaluation of numerous parameters.
