MHealth technologies in research studying cardiovascular health in cancer: A systematic review.

ABSTRACT: Cancer survivors face an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) due to treatment-related toxicity, lifestyle factors, and comorbidities. Addressing CV health is crucial for improving quality of life and long-term outcomes. The American Heart Association's Life's Essential 8 framework highlights modifiable determinants of CV health, emphasizing early detection and monitoring. Mobile health (mHealth) technologies, such as wearables and smartphone apps, offer continuous tracking, yet their applications in cancer survivorship remain unclear. This review systematically characterizes the types of mHealth technologies used to monitor CV health in cancer survivors, focusing on the specific data collected (major adverse CV events, CV risk factors, and surrogate endpoints) and the use of act
