Leveraging lived experience in rural settings: a systematic review protocol of digital healthcare environment.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Digital health interventions (DHIs) are changing the healthcare landscape. However, using these tools effectively for people with chronic conditions in rural areas comes with challenges, highlighting the need to understand their lived experiences. No systematic review was found that examines the inclusion of lived experience in DHI for individuals with chronic conditions in rural areas and how this impacts their acceptance of technology. A systematic review grounded by Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) will be conducted to examine the lived experiences of individuals in rural areas who use DHIs. Individuals with chronic conditions will be examined specifically and how their experiences influence the adoption, use and satisfaction with DHI for managing their health need
