METHODS: Two online Delphi surveys were conducted. Participants in Survey 1 were patients. Participants in Survey 2 were health care professionals from both primary and secondary care involved in BC care. Both surveys included three successive rounds. The first round aimed to identify research and information needs; the second round aimed to rank the relative importance of those needs; the third round aimed to find consensus. RESULTS: The most important information needs were self-management recommendations of common health problems after treatment and complications of breast reconstruction after 5 years. The most important research priorities were related to interventions and tools to increase information provision by professionals about certain tests, diet, and coordinated action between primary and specialised care during follow-up, and indications and safety issues of pregnancy in survivors. CONCLUSIONS: Two fundamental ideas were identified: (1) Patients request information about self-management common health problems after treatment and breast reconstruction complications. (2) Health care professionals emphasise the need for a standardised approach based on protocols, recommendations, and coordinated actions in the provision of information. IMPLICATIONS FOR CANCER SURVIVORS: Given the increasing number of BC survivors, it is essential to identify information and research needs to improve their care and health outcomes.
