Description
Pham Nhat Vi Do and co-authors review trials of support programs for people who have finished treatment for bowel cancer. Their 2026 review searches ten databases for randomized trials, the strongest study design, and pools the results. The programs vary, but all aim to help survivors feel and function better in daily life after treatment ends.
The team found 22 trials with 2,949 survivors. Pooled results from 13 trials show clear gains in both physical and mental quality of life for those in the programs. The authors also grade the quality of the evidence and note where trials differ. That gives clinics a firm base for building survivor care that lasts beyond the hospital.
