The influence of telehealth-based cancer rehabilitation interventions on disability: a systematic review
Open accessAbstract
Purpose To characterize delivery features and explore effectiveness of telehealth-based cancer rehabilitation interventions that address disability in adult cancer survivors.Methods A systematic review of electronic databases (CINAHL Plus, Cochrane Library: Database of Systematic Reviews, Embase, National Health Service's Health Technology Assessment, PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science) was conducted in December 2019 and updated in April 2021.Results Searches identified 3,499 unique studies. Sixty-eight studies met inclusion criteria. There were 81 unique interventions across included studies. Interventions were primarily delivered post-treatment and lasted an average of 16.5 weeks (SD = 13.1). They were most frequently delivered using telephone calls (59%), administered delivered by nursing professionals (35%), and delivered in a one-on-one format (88%). Risk of bias of included studies was primarily moderate to high. Included studies captured 55 measures of disability. Only 54% of reported outcomes had data that allowed calculation of effect sizes ranging -3.58 to 15.66.Conclusions The analyses suggest small effects of telehealth-based cancer interventions on disability, though the heterogeneity seen in the measurement of disability makes it hard to draw firm conclusions. Further research using more diverse samples, common measures of disability, and pragmatic study designs is needed to advance telehealth in cancer rehabilitation.Implications for cancer survivors Telehealth-based cancer rehabilitation interventions have the potential to increase access to care designed to reduce disability across the cancer care continuum.

Systematic reviews have consistently shown that virtual care and remote symptom monitoring can improve access, patient satisfaction, symptom management, and continuity of care, particularly for rural and underserved populations.

From A Scoping Review of Implemented Innovations in Cancer Care: Implications for Pan-Canadian Scaling (2026) · cites this paper as [27]
The Introduction (page unavailable) says telehealth-based cancer rehabilitation may help overcome barriers to access, and the Results report reduced fatigue interference in pooled studies. But the review does not establish improved patient satisfaction or continuity of care; its Discussion says evidence for socially marginalized groups is limited. Its findings therefore do not substantiate the claim's particular emphasis on rural and underserved populations. (LLM, conf=0.86)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe findings of this review are consistent with emerging international evidence that successful cancer care transformation increasingly relies on digital health, workforce innovation, team-based care, and community-oriented models of service delivery.

From A Scoping Review of Implemented Innovations in Cancer Care: Implications for Pan-Canadian Scaling (2026) · cites this paper as [27]
The Introduction and Conclusion support telehealth as a promising way to improve access to cancer rehabilitation and reduce disability, but call for further evaluation. The Results (Intervention delivery features) describe some multidisciplinary interventions; they do not establish that successful cancer care transformation increasingly relies on workforce innovation, team-based care, or community-oriented service models. The broader claim of demonstrated reliance overstates this review’s findings. (LLM, conf=0.88)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
