Home-based digital health technologies for older adults to self-manage multiple chronic conditions: A data-informed analysis of user engagement from a longitudinal trial

Abstract: Background Ageing populations are resulting in higher prevalence of people with multiple chronic conditions (multimorbidity). Digital health platforms have great potential to support self-management of multimorbidity, increasing a person's awareness of their health and well-being, supporting a better understanding of diseases and encouraging behaviour change. However, little research has explored the long-term engagement of older adults with such digital interventions. Methods The aim of this study is to analy… Show more

“…Engagement among patients may be low if they do not perceive the technology as beneficial to their health and well-being. While previous research highlights the importance of understanding people's motivation to perform self-care activities and use self-monitoring technologies [15], motivating people to engage in self-care is hard and little is known about attitudes towards and potential barriers to patient engagement with design [38]. How do we, intrinsically or extrinsically, motivate patients with different outlooks, e.g.…”

“…Digital Health Technologies (DHT) encompass a wide range of data-driven tools and applications spanning from wearable devices to clinical decision support software [ 1 ]. DHTs also play a key role in gathering large amounts of clinical, lifestyle and behavioural data to drive new strategies in healthcare, such as precision medicine, and transform the delivery of health services by reducing pressure on scarce hospital services and into self-managed care [ 2 ]. To achieve these goals, DHT will rely on researchers collecting, storing and curating large datasets linked from multiple sources and transferring them to health professionals and researchers at different institutions and potentially, across jurisdictional borders.…”
