Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) patients and their caregivers often experience multiple co-occurring symptoms (eg, fatigue, depression, anxiety, and sleep disturbance). There is a noticeable gap in research regarding symptom management for patient-caregiver dyads, particularly using technology-based tools.
Objective: This study aimed to describe the needs and perceptions of patient-caregiver dyads regarding a technology-based tool to manage their multiple symptoms.
