Cancer patients often experience complex physical and psychological challenges related to disease progression and treatment side effects. eHealth interventions offer accessible, personalized, and cost-effective tools that support patient engagement, self-efficacy, and coping.
This study applies a structured eHealth intervention grounded in Self-Determination Theory to enhance autonomy, competence, and relatedness among cancer patients. The intervention includes synchronous online sessions, digital educational materials, and ongoing communication via mobile platforms over six weeks. Outcomes are measured using validated self-management and coping scales before and after the intervention. The study contributes evidence on the effectiveness of digital health interventions within the Saudi Arabian healthcare context.
