Résumé
With the burden of colorectal cancer in Canada, there is a need to address the psycho-oncologic challenges, including mental health. This study aims to explore the lived mental health experiences in patients with CRC across the phases of the CRC care continuum. We employed a patient-oriented constructivist grounded theory design and recruited English speaking participants ≥18 years, diagnosed with CRC within the last 10 years, residing in Canada. We collected data through semi-structured individual interviews using a guide co-constructed with patient research partners. Data collection and analysis were iterative, employed theoretical sampling, and culminated in a theoretical model. Twenty-eight participants diagnosed with CRC (18 females, 10 males), aged 18-63 years at time of diagnosis were interviewed, with representation across all CRC stages. There were 10 participants (36%) in treatment, 12 participants (43%) in follow-up, and 6 participants (21%) in the beyond phase. We constructed a patient-oriented theory illustrating the dynamic nature between one's self-identity and their mental health experiences across the CRC care continuum. Mental health experiences encompass emotional and cognitive-behavioral responses, expressed differently across phases. Mental health care experiences are also shaped by barriers, facilitators, and individual contextual factors, all of which influence their access to care. Our theory provides insight into the mental health experiences of patients with CRC across phases of the CRC care continuum. Understanding patients' emotional and cognitive-behavioral responses and care experiences can help identify opportunities to integrate mental health into CRC care.

BACKGROUND
BACKGROUND
With the burden of colorectal cancer in Canada, there is a need to address the psycho-oncologic challenges, including mental health. This study aims to explore the lived mental health experiences in patients with CRC across the phases of the CRC care continuum.
METHODS
METHODS
We employed a patient-oriented constructivist grounded theory design and recruited English speaking participants ≥18 years, diagnosed with CRC within the last 10 years, residing in Canada. We collected data through semi-structured individual interviews using a guide co-constructed with patient research partners. Data collection and analysis were iterative, employed theoretical sampling, and culminated in a theoretical model.
RESULTS
RESULTS
Twenty-eight participants diagnosed with CRC (18 females, 10 males), aged 18-63 years at time of diagnosis were interviewed, with representation across all CRC stages. There were 10 participants (36%) in treatment, 12 participants (43%) in follow-up, and 6 participants (21%) in the beyond phase. We constructed a patient-oriented theory illustrating the dynamic nature between one's self-identity and their mental health experiences across the CRC care continuum. Mental health experiences encompass emotional and cognitive-behavioral responses, expressed differently across phases. Mental health care experiences are also shaped by barriers, facilitators, and individual contextual factors, all of which influence their access to care.
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSIONS
Our theory provides insight into the mental health experiences of patients with CRC across phases of the CRC care continuum. Understanding patients' emotional and cognitive-behavioral responses and care experiences can help identify opportunities to integrate mental health into CRC care.
