Background: This review explores how such interventions can enhance the quality of life for children undergoing cancer treatment and support their social integration.
Materials and Methods: This review draws on a wide range of studies and clinical trials concerning family interventions for children with ASD undergoing cancer radiotherapy. The research materials include both domestic and international literature on various family-centered approaches, such as psychoeducational programs, behavioral interventions, and parent training.
Results: The review identifies several key family interventions that are effective in improving the treatment process for children with ASD undergoing cancer radiotherapy. These include structured parent training, psychoeducational support, and behavioral interventions tailored to the unique needs of children with ASD. Family interventions were found to enhance the children’s ability to cope with the stresses of cancer treatment, improve their emotional regulation, and promote better social integration. Furthermore, active family participation in the treatment process led to improved adherence to medical protocols and greater emotional well-being during radiotherapy.
Conclusion: Family intervention plays a critical role in improving the outcomes for children with autism spectrum disorder undergoing cancer radiotherapy. By actively engaging families, providing appropriate support, and integrating psychoeducational and behavioral strategies, children with ASD can experience better treatment outcomes, enhanced social integration, and improved quality of life. Future research should continue to focus on refining family-based interventions and exploring innovative approaches to support children with ASD in challenging medical situations such as cancer treatment.
