A Smartphone App–Based Mindfulness Intervention for Cancer Survivors: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

A Smartphone App–Based Mindfulness Intervention for Cancer Survivors: Protocol for a Randomized Controlled Trial

Almost half of all cancer survivors experience symptoms from late and long-term effects of treatments such as fatigue, pain, and distress [2]. Concurrently, they must deal with psychosocial stressors such as anxiety, depression, uncertainty about the future, and fear of cancer recurrence as they transition back to their previous roles and responsibilities at home and in the workplace; these factors can impair their quality of life, performance at work, and their ability to contribute to society [3,4].

Effects of a Mindfulness Meditation App on Subjective Well-Being: Active Randomized Controlled Trial and Experience Sampling Study

For this purpose, we employed a newly developed MT app that was designed to collect user’s ratings of current mood and stress level as well as heart rate before and after each guided meditation session. In the active control condition, a popular cognitive game was adapted to allow for the same collection of mood, stress, and heart rate data.
