Key Points Question What is patients’ perception of the helpfulness of a question prompt sheet (QPS) compared with a general information sheet (GIS) for patient-physician communication? Findings In this randomized clinical trial of 130 patients with advanced cancer, participants perceived both QPS and GIS as helpful, but they had a more positive global view of and preferred QPS to GIS in communicating with their physician. QPS reportedly facilitated the generation of new questions without increasing patient anxiety or prolonging the consultation visit. Meaning These findings provide support for increased adoption and integration of QPS into routine oncologic care.
