Oncology Provider and Patient Perspectives on a Cardiovascular Health Assessment Tool Used During Posttreatment Survivorship Care in Community Oncology (Results from WF-1804CD): Mixed Methods Observational Study

Oncology Provider and Patient Perspectives on a Cardiovascular Health Assessment Tool Used During Posttreatment Survivorship Care in Community Oncology (Results from WF-1804CD): Mixed Methods Observational Study

Survivors of many common early-stage cancers are now more likely to die of cardiovascular disease than cancer, elevating the importance of addressing cardiovascular health (CVH) in routine survivorship care [1-6]. Over 90% of survivors have multiple cardiovascular risk factors [7], increasing their risk of both poor cardiovascular and cancer outcomes [8-16]. Compared to the general population, survivors of cancer have poorer CVH [17,18].

Adapting a Self-Guided eHealth Intervention Into a Tailored Therapist-Guided eHealth Intervention for Survivors of Colorectal Cancer

However, no intervention customized to address FCR in survivors of CRC has been developed [7,41]. In summary, this paper describes the process of adapting i Conquer Fear into TG-i Conquer Fear targeting survivors of CRC.

Measuring Relationship Influences on Romantic Couples’ Cancer-Related Behaviors During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Protocol for a Longitudinal Online Study of Dyads and Cancer Survivors

Measuring Relationship Influences on Romantic Couples’ Cancer-Related Behaviors During the COVID-19 Pandemic: Protocol for a Longitudinal Online Study of Dyads and Cancer Survivors

In addition, cancer survivors have been particularly vulnerable to COVID-19 during the pandemic [16]. The greater risk of health consequences for cancer survivors due to the COVID-19 pandemic, combined with evidence gaps in the existing survivorship literature [17], demonstrates a critical need to better understand the mechanisms of health behavior and risk perceptions during survivorship.

Behavioral Weight Loss Programs for Cancer Survivors Throughout Maryland: Protocol for a Pragmatic Trial and Participant Characteristics

Behavioral Weight Loss Programs for Cancer Survivors Throughout Maryland: Protocol for a Pragmatic Trial and Participant Characteristics

Hence, for many cancer survivors, obesity poses a dual risk of decreased cardiometabolic health and increased cancer recurrence. In the United States, there were an estimated 18 million cancer survivors in 2022 [7], and this number is expected to increase to 22.5 million by 2032 due to advancements in treatment and early detection [8]. It is estimated that 32.5% of cancer survivors are overweight or obese [7].

Supporting Life Adjustment in Patients With Lung Cancer Through a Comprehensive Care Program: Protocol for a Controlled Before-and-After Trial

Supporting Life Adjustment in Patients With Lung Cancer Through a Comprehensive Care Program: Protocol for a Controlled Before-and-After Trial

Consequently, the growing number of lung cancer survivors underscores the urgent need to address posttreatment needs. Surviving lung cancer can substantially impact the quality of life and emotional health [4-6]. Many survivors adjust over time; however, persistent fear and the expectation of a rapid return to normal posttreatment life are common [7,8].

Mobile Mindfulness Meditation for Cancer-Related Anxiety and Neuropathy: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Mobile Mindfulness Meditation for Cancer-Related Anxiety and Neuropathy: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

The latest report from the American Cancer Society estimates that there are 16.9 million cancer survivors in the United States [1]. A diagnosis of cancer or recurrence of cancer can cause psychological distress, including symptoms of anxiety and depression [2]. For patients receiving treatment for cancer, 10.3% meet the clinical criteria for an anxiety disorder [3], compared with 7% of those in the general population [4].

Support for Chronic Pain Management for Breast Cancer Survivors Through Novel Digital Health Ecosystems: Pilot Usability Study of the PainRELife Mobile App

Support for Chronic Pain Management for Breast Cancer Survivors Through Novel Digital Health Ecosystems: Pilot Usability Study of the PainRELife Mobile App

In 2040, it is expected there will be approximately 26 million new cancer survivors in the United States, underscoring the growing importance of survivorship [1,2]. Mullan [3] defined survivorship as a process characterized by 3 different stages: acute survival, from diagnosis to active treatments; extended survival, from treatments to active surveillance; and permanent survival, in which the probability of recurrence is low.

Feasibility of a Health Coach Intervention to Reduce Sitting Time and Improve Physical Functioning Among Breast Cancer Survivors: Pilot Intervention Study

Feasibility of a Health Coach Intervention to Reduce Sitting Time and Improve Physical Functioning Among Breast Cancer Survivors: Pilot Intervention Study

Despite the effectiveness of increasing physical activity to improve physical function and quality of life [3,4], not all survivors are able to make these behavioral changes. In particular, some breast cancer survivors have poor physical function that would make achieving the recommended level of MVPA [5] an unrealistic and potentially unsafe goal.
