This sub study analyzes the impact of engagement on outcomes in advanced cancer patients and caregivers, suggesting crucial assessment methods for digital interventions.
While we identified several associations between engagement and patient/caregiver characteristics, there were inconsistencies in the extent and nature of the associations, with more evidence that baseline characteristics impacted engagement, than evidence that engagement impacted on outcomes. However, using multiple measures of engagement did provide additional insights. A key recommendation from this study is the need for consideration of assessments of engagement for digital interventions.
