Abstract

This paper explores the mental health challenges faced by pediatric oncology patients, arising from both the biological effects of cancer and the psychological stresses of treatment. It evaluates the effectiveness of existing therapeutic interventions like Clown Care and laughter yoga, and assesses the potential of advanced technology-based interventions and integrated care models. The paper also discusses the role of high school students in advancing research and supporting these interventions through volunteering. The goal is to illustrate how technological innovations alongside youth involvement can contribute to the mental well-being of pediatric oncology patients.
