Purpose: Psychosocial screening for glioma patients is challenging because many patients suffer from neurocognitive deficits, which may impair assessment. This study's aim was to exploratively develop three screening questions for unmet needs to prospectively be applicable in patient-doctor consultation. Methods: Patient interviews, a survey for health-care professionals and a weighted scoring procedure were developed for this study. Six main areas were defined according to main areas of validated questionnaires (psyche, cognition, body, role functioning, social support, unmet needs). Patients and health-care professionals rated the importance of these areas and corresponding items, patients additionally stated whether the issues addressed affected them. Results: A total of 50 patients were included, and 36 health-care professionals participated in the online survey. The three areas (psyche, body and cognition) considered to be most relevant by both, health-care professionals and patients, generated three screening questions. If the patient was affected by the issue addressed with a screening question, a subordinate question from that area that our patient sample considered most important could additionally be asked. The elaborated screening questions are the following: (1) main area psyche: 'Has your mood worsened?', (2) main area body: 'Do physical changes put a strain on you?', and (3) main area cognition: 'Has your memory capacity worsened?' Conclusion: These questions represent a basis for further research regarding their application in neuro-oncological clinical routine.
