CONCLUSION
This review highlights the lack of studies on interventions to optimise
long-term health in pediatric oncology, especially for younger children
and patients still undergoing cancer treatment. No conclusive evidence
favouring specific interventions were identified, although there is
preliminary evidence that health promotion interventions are feasible
and potentially beneficial for children with cancer and survivors. These
results also provide insights that are useful in integrating future
health promotion interventions in childhood cancer patients and
survivors. Future research is vital in identifying and defining the most
efficient methods to implement these programs and optimize patient
outcomes.
