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.

Objective: Technology-based psychosocial interventions (TBPIs) have increasingly gained intention. However, the effectiveness of TBPIs on psychological outcomes remains inconclusive. This review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of TBPIs on health-related quality of life (HRQOL), coping, self-efficacy, and depression among adult cancer patients and caregivers.

Article Synopsis
  • A systematic review highlights the need for objective, technology-based tools to assess parent-child attachment in a more ecologically valid way than traditional methods, which can be intrusive and reactive.
  • The review analyzed 11,910 citations and identified 18 studies that employed various ecological momentary assessment (EMA) tools, including audio, video, diary, and sensory methods, each with distinct strengths.
  • While the psychometric properties of these EMA tools were generally strong, the review suggests that future research should investigate attachment complexities by considering diverse ethnic backgrounds, multiple caregivers, gender differences, and cognitive aspects in real-world settings.

Early adolescents diagnosed with asthma have difficulties consistently performing disease self-management behaviors, placing them at-risk for poor asthma control, morbidity, and reduced quality of life. Helpful caregiver support is pivotal in determining whether early adolescents develop and master asthma self-management behaviors. We developed Applying Interactive Mobile health to Asthma Care in Teens (AIM2ACT), a mobile health intervention to facilitate helpful caregiver support in early adolescents (12-15 year-olds) with poorly controlled asthma.
