Abstract

Background

The utilization of mobile application in postoperative care for breast cancer patients has seen a significant rise in recent years. This study aimed to synthesize the literature to identify the features of breast cancer postoperative care mobile applications.

Methods

This scoping review was conducted using the framework developed by Arksey and O'Malley. All articles published from inception until July 25, 2024, were searched in the PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, IEEE, and Cochrane databases. The quality of publications was evaluated using the mixed-methods appraisal tool (MMAT).

Results

A total of 999 publications were found, of which 28 studies were considered in this review. Out of these studies, 14 used native apps, 14 used hybrid apps. Nine features were used in applications, and Tracker, Tailored Education, and Community Forum were the most repetitive features. In five studies, various devices and sensors, like Bluetooth and GPS, were utilized in mobile applications to monitor physical activity, stress levels, heart rate, sleep patterns, and calorie intake.

Conclusions

Mobile applications for postoperative breast cancer care encompass a range of features. In a co-design approach, understanding patients' required features could help to develop usable applications to improve the postoperative care for breast cancer patients.

乳腺癌术后护理中的移动应用：范围综述。

背景：近年来，移动应用在乳腺癌患者术后护理中的使用率显著上升。本研究旨在对文献进行综述，以确定乳腺癌术后护理移动应用的特点：本范围综述采用 Arksey 和 O'Malley 开发的框架。在PubMed、Scopus、Web of Science、IEEE和Cochrane数据库中检索了从开始到2024年7月25日发表的所有文章。使用混合方法评估工具（MMAT）对出版物的质量进行了评估：结果：共发现了 999 篇出版物，其中 28 项研究被纳入本综述。在这些研究中，14 项使用了本地应用程序，14 项使用了混合应用程序。应用程序中使用了九种功能，其中跟踪器、定制教育和社区论坛是重复使用最多的功能。在五项研究中，移动应用程序使用了蓝牙和 GPS 等各种设备和传感器来监测身体活动、压力水平、心率、睡眠模式和卡路里摄入量：结论：用于乳腺癌术后护理的移动应用具有多种功能。结论：用于乳腺癌术后护理的移动应用程序包含一系列功能。在共同设计方法中，了解患者所需的功能有助于开发可用的应用程序，从而改善乳腺癌患者的术后护理。
