“…In addition to the BHLS, numerous tools can be used to assess health literacy, including the Cancer Health Literacy Test-6 (Dumenci et al, 2014), Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine (Davis et al, 1991), Shortened Test of Functional Health Literacy in Adults (Baker et al, 1999), National Assessment of Adult Literacy (NAAL; Yin et al, 2009), and the Newest Vital Sign (NVS; Weiss et al, 2005). In pediatric oncology, the BHLS (Sajeev et al, 2017), NVS (Shea et al, 2019), and Cancer Health Literacy Test-6 (Hentea et al, 2019) are the only standardized instruments, to our knowledge, that have been used to assess health literacy in parents of children with cancer. Similar to our findings, Hentea et al (2019) and Shea et al (2019) reported that 17% and 16.7% of parents of children with cancer, respectively, had low health literacy, while Sajeev et al (2017) reported that 32% of parents of children with cancer had low health literacy.…”
