Understanding Adherence to Digital Health Technologies: Systematic Review of Predictive Factors.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Digital health technologies (DHTs) are transformative solutions for health care challenges; however, sustaining long-term adherence remains a significant barrier, limiting their effectiveness.

Objective

This systematic review aims to identify and categorize factors influencing adherence to DHTs and to identify theoretical foundations used to predict it.

Methods

This review was conducted according to the PICO (population, intervention, comparison, outcome) strategy and followed the Cochrane Handbook and PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) 2020 guidelines. The protocol was prospectively registered on PROSPERO (CRD42024628168). Literature searches were performed in December 2024 in PubMed, PsycINFO, Scopus, and IEEE Xplo
