“…These findings are consistent with Dwairej and Ahmed’s findings that smartphone applications lead to more statistically significant knowledge scores ( p = 0.005), BP control ( p = 0.005), and self-care ( p = 0.04). 40 This review is consistent with previous studies in finding that smartphone applications have unique features that facilitate self-care actions and improve outcomes in HD patients. Kosa et al reported that nutritional mobile applications greatly assist patients in tracking their food intake, recognizing food items, and estimating portions.…”

Background: End-stage renal disease (ESRD) poses a significant health challenge, with hemodialysis (HD) being the most prevalent therapy. Patients undergoing HD must comply with a strict therapeutic regimen, including dietary control, fluid restriction, and medication adherence. Successful disease management and improved outcomes rely on patients’ involvement and participation in their care. Aim: To identify the factors that hinder or facilitate self-care management (SCM) in HD patients. Methodology: This review followed Whittemore and Knafl’s integrative review framework. A comprehensive literature search of articles published between 2017 and 2022 was conducted in CINAHL, Medline, and PubMed using the keywords end-stage renal disease , hemodialysis , self-care management , self-care , and self-management . This search yielded 21 suitable articles for review. Results: SCM is influenced by three main factors: facilitators, barriers, and outcomes. Facilitators of SCM include self-care management interventions, patient knowledge, socio-demographic factors, family support, healthcare professionals, peer support, and psychological factors. Barriers encompass psychological and physical conditions. Outcomes include both physiological and psychological aspects. Conclusion: Understanding the factors influencing SCM in HD patients is vital for developing reliable and effective self-care strategies and interventions to enhance both physical and psychological outcomes.

“…If patients are made aware that self-care tools may aid in illness management and control. Then, it will be simpler for patients to embrace these apps since they would think that by following self-care the applications, their recovery will be substantially accelerated [ 64 , 66 , 67 ]. The team can highlight the advantages of an anxiety and depression self-care app, like better health information access‌ [ 68 ], lower medical errors and treatment costs, improved coordination among healthcare providers, and reduced patient travel [ 69 ].…”

Background and Aim Depression and anxiety can cause social, behavioral, occupational, and functional impairments if not controlled and managed. Mobile-based self-care applications can play an essential and effective role in controlling and reducing the effects of anxiety disorders and depression. The aim of this study was to design and develop a mobile-based self-care application for patients with depression and anxiety disorders with the goal of enhancing their mental health and overall well-being. Materials and methods In this study we designed a mobile-based application for self -management of depression and anxiety disorders. In order to design this application, first the education- informational needs and capabilities were identified through a systematic review. Then, according to 20 patients with depression and anxiety, this education-informational needs and application capabilities were approved. In the next step, the application was designed. Results In the first step, 80 education-information needs and capabilities were identified. Finally, in the second step, of 80 education- informational needs and capabilities, 68 needs and capabilities with a mean greater than and equal to 3.75 (75%) were considered in application design. Disease control and management, drug management, nutrition and diet management, recording clinical records, communicating with physicians and other patients, reminding appointments, how to improve lifestyle, quitting smoking and reducing alcohol consumption, educational content, sedation instructions, introducing health care centers for depression and anxiety treatment and recording activities, personal goals and habits in a diary were the most important features of this application. Conclusion The designed application can encourage patients with depression and stress to perform self-care processes and access necessary information without searching the Internet.

“…Increased knowledge related to ACS symptoms is closely related to the faster ability to recognize the early symptoms of ACS. This will increase awareness regarding ACS symptoms, so there is no need to wait for symptoms to worsen to decide to seek help (3,(7)(8)(9)(10)(18)(19)(20)(21).…”

“…Increased knowledge through the DETAK application has shown to increase respondents' self-efficacy in first aid for ACS (19,25). The independent learning experience through the media provided has made respondents feel more confident because they can learn and try to identify themselves regarding the symptoms and risk factors they feel.…”

Introduction: Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is still a major cause of mortality and morbidity globally. One of the factors that cause a prehospital delay is the delay in early detection and inaccuracy of early treatment of ACS. The Internet of Things, which is supported by the high use of smartphones with the DETAK application, can be an opportunity to facilitate ACS education programs so that ACS can be detected early. Method: This study has used a quantitative research design with a quasi-experimental approach which pretest and posttest, in which both the experimental and control groups participate. The inclusion criteria of this study were age >45 years; obesity; smoker; Respondents with a history of: hypertension/diabetes mellitus/hyperlipidemia/hypercholesterolemia/CVD/families with cardiovascular disease. 252 respondents who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into control (n=126) and intervention groups (n=126). The intervention group was given education through the DETAK application and the control group was given leaflet about ACS. Results: The results of the study showed that there was an increased in early treatment ability was only found in the intervention group (p<.001). Mean differences of the ability of early detection (p<.001) and early treatment (p=.019)between intervention and control groups were both significance. Conclusion: There is potential for DETAK applications to improve the early detection and treatment capabilities of ACS.
