Summary

Colorectal cancer is a globally prevalent malignant tumor. Postoperative patients often face physical discomfort, psychological stress, and lack of healthy lifestyles. However, traditional health education models have limitations such as insufficient targeting and poor interactivity, making it difficult to meet their needs for full-cycle health management. This study is a multicenter randomized controlled trial, which plans to enroll 174 patients aged 18 years and above who have undergone radical resection for colorectal cancer, and randomly divide them into an experimental group and a control group at a ratio of 1:1. The experimental group will receive Transtheoretical Model (TTM)-based metaverse lifestyle health education (including phased course learning, metaverse immersive interaction, and WeChat group check-in supervision) with an intervention cycle of 1 months and follow-up until 3 months after the intervention; the control group will only receive routine paper-based education and outpatient follow-up. The study aims to verify the improvement effect of this metaverse intervention model on the quality of life and healthy lifestyle of colorectal cancer survivors, and explore its role in improving patients' self-efficacy, so as to provide empirical evidence for optimizing long-term health management programs for cancer survivors.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

TTM-Based Metaverse Lifestyle Health Education

A three-month, stage-stratified behavioral intervention targeting colorectal cancer postoperative survivors, developed in alignment with the five stages of the Transtheoretical Model (TTM): pre-contemplation, contemplation, preparation, action, and maintenance. The intervention encompasses lifestyle modification modules (encompassing dietary guidance, physical activity protocols, and stress management) delivered via a metaverse platform-including didactic materials, immersive interactive modules, health behavior challenges, and peer support communities (20-30 minutes daily). It is supplemented by daily check-in prompts via WeChat groups and real-time clinical consultation from the research team. This intervention is designed to facilitate the adoption of health-promoting behaviors and enhance health-related quality of life among participants.
