Abstract

Objectives: There are several challenges in providing healthcare services for lung cancer patients. Using teleoncology is an effective solution to meet such challenges. Given this, we in this study aimed to identify the features of teleoncology in lung cancer. Methods: We conducted this scoping review in 2023. We first searched scientific databases including PubMed, Scopus, ISI Web of Sciences, and Science Direct by combining related keywords for the past 12 years (2012-2023). Results: After reviewing 860 articles, we selected 39 studies for the purpose of this study. The interventions of teleoncology for lung cancer patients have four main categories, namely: monitoring of symptoms, monitoring the process of treatment and rehabilitation of patients, self-management and patient empowerment, and providing consultation for patients. Conclusion: The appropriate implementation of teleoncology systems improves the patient's condition and reduces lung cancer complications by improving the availability of different health services. Practice implications: More attention should be paid to the evaluation of telemedicine systems from the perspective of patients and health service providers. Also, the latest platforms, including mobile phone-based software, should be used to implement such systems.
