Abstract

Background: The use of digital health strategies for cancer care increased dramatically in the United States over the past 4 years. However, a dearth of knowledge remains about the use of digital health for cancer prevention for some populations with heath disparities. Therefore, the purpose of the present scoping review was to identify digital health interventions for cancer prevention designed for people with disabilities.

Methods: This scoping review was guided by the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for scoping reviews and the Arksey and O'Malley methodological framework. The Embase, PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE, and CINAHL/EBSCO databases were searched for peer-reviewed articles published from database inception to February 5, 2024. Reports published in English of studies that employed digital health strategies for cancer prevention, were conducted among people with disabilities regardless of age, and were conducted in the United States were included.

Findings: Following screening for eligibility, seven articles were identified. The types of disabilities were cancer (n = 4), bipolar I or II disorder (n = 1), obesity (n = 1), and deafness (n = 1). Interventions focused on education (n = 4), screening (n = 3), smoking cessation (n = 3), physical activity (n = 1), and cessation support (n = 1). Digital health strategies consisted of educational content delivered online, text messaging, interactive educational games, and downloadable informational applications. The common outcome of interest across all manuscripts was intervention efficacy.

Interpretation: Overall, limited research is available to evaluate the use of digital health for cancer prevention among people with disabilities. This review identified gaps in knowledge that, if addressed, may help guide continued innovation in the use of digital health strategies for cancer prevention among people with disabilities.

在美国残疾人中使用数字健康干预措施预防癌症：范围审查

背景：在过去的4年里，美国癌症护理中数字健康策略的使用急剧增加。然而，对于一些存在健康差距的人群来说，使用数字健康预防癌症的知识仍然缺乏。因此，本范围审查的目的是确定为残疾人设计的预防癌症的数字健康干预措施。方法：本范围评价采用系统评价首选报告项目和荟萃分析扩展范围评价和Arksey和O'Malley方法框架。检索Embase、PubMed、Ovid MEDLINE和CINAHL/EBSCO数据库，检索从数据库建立到2024年2月5日发表的同行评议文章。用英语发表的关于采用数字健康战略预防癌症的研究报告包括在内，这些研究是在美国不分年龄的残疾人中进行的。结果：筛选合格后，确定了7篇文章。残疾类型为癌症（n = 4）、双相I型或II型障碍（n = 1）、肥胖（n = 1）和耳聋（n = 1）。干预措施侧重于教育（n = 4）、筛查（n = 3）、戒烟（n = 3）、体育活动（n = 1）和戒烟支持（n = 1）。数字健康战略包括在线提供的教育内容、短信、交互式教育游戏和可下载的信息应用程序。所有文献的共同结果是干预效果。解释：总体而言，有限的研究可用于评估残疾人使用数字健康预防癌症的情况。本次审查确定了知识方面的差距，如果这些差距得到解决，可能有助于指导残疾人在使用数字卫生战略预防癌症方面的持续创新。
