Development of an Educational Website for Patients With Cancer and Preexisting Autoimmune Diseases Considering Immune Checkpoint Blockers: Usability and Acceptability Study

We found that most patients preferred educational materials in multiple formats (eg, video, audio, graphics, and text), suggesting that websites or smartphone apps would be the most convenient delivery channels [11]. Clinicians also agreed that the optimal delivery of health information should include multiple formats; however, crucial requirements identified by providers were accuracy, simplicity, and standardized information (as opposed to individualized or nonlinear information) [12].

“Pro-suicide” websites are those that promote or facilitate suicide, including advocating for an individual’s “right” to end their own life, creating communities of individuals who desire to end their own lives, as well as sharing explicit information on means of killing oneself [5,6]. These sites provide largely unmoderated forums for discussion of suicide, which may encourage, promote, or facilitate suicide.

This support includes encouragement, participating in activities together, and observing a family member’s involvement in physical activities or sports.
