Turkey (Türkiye)70 participantsStarted 2023-03-01

Plain-language summary

The incidence of colorectal cancer ranks fourth worldwide after lung, prostate and breast cancers. Although chemotherapy has an important place in the treatment of colorectal cancers, it can cause side effects such as diarrhea and fatigue in patients. Cancer patients' ability to cope with treatment side effects can be benefited from technological developments. Studies have shown that mobile health applications reduce symptom experience and increase quality of life in patients with breast cancer and leukemia.
