Summary

This study aims to investigate computer based symptom assessment in an outpatient cancer population, and the use of a computer based decision support system to facilitate the diagnosis and treatment of cancer related pain.

Primary hypothesis is, that this approach improves pain control and pain management in an unselected group of cancer patients in an outpatient setting.

* Improvement of average pain last 24 hours by at least 1.5 points on a 0-11 scale
* Improvement of worst pain last 24 hours by at least 1.5 points on a 0-11 scale
* An alteration in the prescribing dose of opioids in equipotent opioid dosage

Secondary hypothesis is, that this system improves overall symptom control and symptom management in an unselected group of cancer patients in an outpatient setting.
