The Current Landscape of Remote Digital Symptom Monitoring for Patients With Lung Cancer: Scoping Review

This scoping review highlights the promising role of rSMS in lung cancer care and provides a structured map of current evidence. It adds to prior literature in 3 ways. First, it summarizes how and how often theoretical frameworks are reported and applied in rSMS development and implementation. Second, it synthesizes and categorizes four common functional modules across systems. Third, it differentiates measures embedded as rSMS components from those used as evaluation outcomes. These contributions clarify current practices and methodological gaps and underscore the importance of theory-informed design, functional clarity, and stakeholder engagement in the development of patient-centered, clinically meaningful, and sustainable rSMS platforms.
