Information Deficits, Information Needs, and Preferences Regarding eHealth in a Dutch Population With Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease: Cross-Sectional Survey Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Globally, metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a common lifestyle-related disease. Lifestyle interventions focusing on healthy eating habits, physical exercise, and reducing body weight in case of obesity are the primary recommended therapies to reverse or improve MASLD. However, patients often experience difficulties in complying with the required lifestyle changes for several reasons, including a lack of knowledge. Health care professionals express limited time during consultations as one of the barriers to discussing lifestyle behavior change. A potential solution to eliminate these barriers and improve the provision of information to patients with MASLD is the use of eHealth.

Objective

This study aimed to explore the information
