Development of a Voice-Activated Virtual Assistant to Improve Insomnia Among Young Adult Cancer Survivors: Mixed Methods Feasibility and Acceptability Study

Development of a Voice-Activated Virtual Assistant to Improve Insomnia Among Young Adult Cancer Survivors: Mixed Methods Feasibility and Acceptability Study

Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is the gold standard intervention recommended by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) to address insomnia in cancer survivor populations [18-20]. Previous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of CBT-I among YACSs [21,22]. However, widespread accessibility to CBT-I remains challenging due to an insufficient number of trained providers, a lack of insurance coverage, and even language barriers [23,24].

Generative AI–Enabled Therapy Support Tool for Improved Clinical Outcomes and Patient Engagement in Group Therapy: Real-World Observational Study

The Effects of Digital eHealth Versus Onsite 2-Day Group-Based Education in 255 Patients With Irritable Bowel Syndrome: Cohort Study

Approaches may include physical therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), hypnotherapy, mindfulness and exposure therapy, and comprehensive dietary guidance by registered dietitians such as the low FODMAP (fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols) diet. However, access to these treatment options is often limited due to lack of trained professionals, travel distances, and cost. Thus, more accessible treatment options are warranted.

Digital interventions that have been generalized from clinical or community settings, to the workplace, primarily cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) [1], stress management [2], and mindfulness-based stress reduction programs [3] have shown promise.
