Identifying Behaviour Change Techniques in Cancer Nutrition Interventions and Their Implementation Contexts: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background/objectives

Effective nutritional care is a critical component of oncology treatment. Behaviour change techniques (BCTs) are key elements that drive individual behaviour change and are commonly identified within clinical interventions and implementation strategies.
