How to Share Your Curava Progress Reports With Your Care Team

Cancer survivors spend most of their time outside clinics, managing symptoms, activity, and daily life with limited direct oversight. Patient‑generated health data (PGHD)—including activity, symptoms, and mood tracked between visits—can make this “invisible work” visible and strengthen survivorship care when it is shared constructively. NCCN and national survivorship toolkits increasingly emphasize the value of patient‑reported outcomes and data sharing to inform screening, evaluation, and treatment decisions.​

Curava reports offer a practical way to package health data into concise, clinically useful snapshots. Used regularly, they can support shared decision‑making and more personalized survivorship plans.​

Generating Curava reports that clinicians can use

Different types of clinicians often care about different slices of your data:​

• Activity summary

  • Best for: Oncologists, cardiologists, physios, and rehab professionals who want to understand your physical activity level, frequency, and progression.

  • Time frame: Often 4 weeks, so they can see patterns rather than isolated days.​

• Symptom trends

  • Best for: Oncologists, PCPs, and dietitians looking at fatigue, pain, GI issues, sleep, neuropathy, and other side effects.

  • Time frame: 2–8 weeks, depending on symptom stability or recent treatment changes.​

• Mood and energy patterns

  • Best for: Psychologists, social workers, survivorship clinicians, and PCPs who support mental health and coping.

  • Time frame: Weekly or monthly views help reveal how stressors, treatment cycles, and movement relate to mood.​

Steps to generate and refine a report:

1. Open Curava and go to the Reports dashboard.

2. Select the period that matches your upcoming visit (for example, “last 4 weeks”).

3. Customize what appears, focusing on the metrics most relevant to that clinician (for example, activity + fatigue for oncology; activity + blood‑pressure‑related symptoms for PCP; mood + sleep for mental health).

4. Export or print: Save as a PDF, email it through a secure channel if your system allows, or bring a printed copy to your appointment.​

Keeping reports focused increases the chance your team can act on them during a busy clinic schedule.

Integrating reports into visits

A short script and role‑specific focus make it easier to bring reports into conversations:

• Opening script

  • “Here’s a Curava report summarizing my activity and symptoms over the last month. Could we look at these trends together and see how they fit with my labs, scans, or exams?”​

• What to share with each team member

Team member	Focus areas in the report	Sample insight you might highlight
Oncologist	Overall activity volume, fatigue, pain patterns	“I’ve been averaging close to 150 minutes/week of walking at light–moderate intensity; fatigue has improved slightly.”​
Physio / Rehab	Pain or stiffness by exercise type, adherence to home program	“No shoulder issues after strength sessions, but knee pain rises after more than 15 minutes of stairs.”​
PCP	Global trends in activity, sleep, blood‑pressure‑related symptoms	“Sleep improved after regular walking; lightheadedness occurs on days I miss meals.”​
Dietitian	Energy levels in relation to meals or snacks	“Stamina is better on days I eat a protein‑rich breakfast before walking.”​
Psychologist / Social worker	Mood shifts, anxiety spikes around specific events	“Anxiety scores spike before scans; gentle activity seems to help on those days.”​

• Questions to ask

  • “Based on this report, should I change my exercise plan, medications, or nutrition in any way?”

  • “Are there any red flags here you want me to watch more closely?”

Clinicians can then interpret your Curava trends in the context of test results and their clinical judgment.

Benefits for you and your care team

Sharing structured reports can offer several advantages:

• More accurate information than memory alone:

  • PGHD can reduce recall bias and provide objective or semi‑objective trends in activity and symptoms between visits.​

• Earlier detection of changes:

  • Symptom and activity monitoring systems have been associated with better symptom control, fewer emergency visits, and, in some studies, improved quality of life and survival.​

• Support for safe progression:

  • Seeing how you responded to previous changes can help your team decide when to increase, maintain, or reduce activity levels or adjust other interventions.​

Curava reports also make visible the “invisible work” you do to manage your health, which can strengthen trust and collaboration with your clinicians.​

Patient‑generated data is increasingly recognized as a valuable component of high‑quality survivorship care, especially when it is organized and shared in ways clinicians can easily use. Curava progress reports offer a ready‑made format for that sharing—translating your daily movement, symptoms, and mood into patterns that can guide decisions.​

By generating focused reports every few months or when something changes, highlighting key trends, and asking how they should shape your plan, you become an active partner in your care. This kind of data‑informed partnership can help your team respond earlier, individualize recommendations, and align medical care with the life you are working to build after cancer.​
