Characteristics of Smart Health Ecosystems That Support Self-care Among People With Heart Failure: Scoping Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The management of heart failure is complex. Innovative solutions are required to support health care providers and people with heart failure with decision-making and self-care behaviors. In recent years, more sophisticated technologies have enabled new health care models, such as smart health ecosystems. Smart health ecosystems use data collection, intelligent data processing, and communication to support the diagnosis, management, and primary and secondary prevention of chronic conditions. Currently, there is little information on the characteristics of smart health ecosystems for people with heart failure.

Objective

We aimed to identify and describe the characteristics of smart health ecosystems that support heart failure self-care.
