Patient Generated Health Data Among Older Adults with Cancer in Home Setting: Scoping Review.

This scoping review aimed to identify and synthesize the literature related to patient-generated health data (PGHD) among older adults with cancer in home setting. Of the 1,090 articles extracted through six databases searches, 53 were selected. Studies were published from 2007 to 2022 and the types of devices to generate PGHD included research-grade and consumer-grade wearable devices. PGHD was assessed for physical activity, vital signs, and sleep. PGHD utilization was categorized: 1) identification, monitoring, review, and analysis (100%); 2) feedback and information report (32.1%); 3) motivation (26.4%); and 4) education and coaching (17.0%). Our study reveals that various PGHDs from older adults with cancer are mainly collected passively, with limited use for interaction with healthcare providers. These results may provide valuable insights for healthcare providers into potential PGHD applications in geriatric cancer care.
