- Systematic review examines wearable technologies' effects on breast cancer patients' physical and psychosocial health.
- Wearable devices like EEG headbands and activity trackers showed improvements in fatigue, quality of life, stress, and physical activity.
- Exercise-based interventions with wearables increased moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and cardiorespiratory fitness.
- High feasibility and user acceptability were reported across studies.
- Limited evidence suggests wearables may support monitoring, adherence, and self-management in breast cancer care.
- Further research is needed to clarify wearables' independent and additive contributions to health outcomes.
