Evaluation of the Implementation of a Mobile Health App to Support Dutch Primary Care for Diabetes: Qualitative Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Over 1 million Dutch people have diabetes, of whom 90% have type 2 diabetes. Studies show that lifestyle plays an important role in the course of type 2 diabetes. MiGuide (MiGuide Ltd) is an online platform that helps people adopt and sustain lifestyle changes. The platform is integrated into existing diabetes care within primary care. Previous research has shown that implementing new (eHealth) interventions is challenging and may reduce effectiveness. Mapping out the barriers and success factors in the implementation process is essential so that eHealth interventions such as MiGuide can be used effectively in regular health care.

Objective

This study aimed to evaluate the implementation of MiGuide within Dutch primary care.

Methods

A qualitative study desi
