Abstract

ABSTRACTThis study represents our preliminary work focused on the health information seeking of caregivers of ovarian cancer (OvCa) patients and survivors. Previous research has predominantly focused on OvCa patients' needs, while neglecting caregivers' needs independently. Through the analysis of social media posts by OvCa caregivers, this study explores seven categories of information needs desired by caregivers and examines how these needs evolve throughout the disease trajectory. By distinguishing between caregiver‐specific needs and those on behalf of the patient, our study contributes to the development of a holistic caregiver support framework.
