Abstract

The scoping review investigated how digital technologies have helped to increase cancer screening uptake in communities including adolescents, adults and elderly people during the COVID-19 outbreak between January 2020 and June 2021. Thirteen studies were identified as being relevant, mostly addressing underserved or minority communities with the purpose to increase screening uptake, delivering health education or investigating social and cultural barriers to cancer screening. The interventions effectively used digital technologies such as mobile apps and messengers mobile apps, messaging and Web platforms. The limitations imposed by COVID-19 on social interaction can be supported with digital solutions to ensure the continuity of cancer screening programs. However, more research is needed to clarify the exact nature of effectiveness, especially in large-scale interventions.

摘要

本范围综述调查了数字技术如何帮助在 2020 年 1 月至 2021 年 6 月期间的 COVID-19 疫情期间，提高青少年、成年人和老年人等社区的癌症筛查参与度。确定了 13 项相关研究，主要针对服务不足或少数族裔社区，旨在提高筛查参与度、提供健康教育或调查癌症筛查的社会和文化障碍。这些干预措施有效地使用了数字技术，如移动应用程序和信使移动应用程序、消息传递和 Web 平台。COVID-19 对社交互动的限制可以通过数字解决方案来支持，以确保癌症筛查计划的连续性。然而，需要进一步的研究来澄清确切的有效性性质，特别是在大规模干预措施中。
