Diabetes Mellitus, Colo-rectal Cancer, Hypertension, Dyslipidemia
Conditions
Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if a mobile health management program can improve chronic disease management among colorectal cancer survivors with comorbid conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the mobile health application improve clinical outcomes such as blood pressure, blood glucose levels, and lipid profiles? Does the application enhance participants' health behaviors and self-management capabilities? Researchers will compare the mobile health application group to the educational booklet group to see if the digital intervention leads to better health outcomes and adherence to lifestyle changes
Interventions
A printed booklet containing general information on chronic disease management provided to participants for reference without interactive or digital features
A mobile health application that facilitates self-management of chronic conditions through daily education, personalized goal setting, and lifestyle monitoring. The intervention aims to improve participants' health behaviors and clinical outcomes by promoting active engagement with their health.
