Development and usage of a health recommendation web tool (HeaRT) designed to inform women of personalized preventive health recommendations.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Implementation of guidelines for evidence-based screening and disease prevention remains a core challenge in health care. The lack of access to accurate and personalized health recommendations may contribute to sub-optimal performance of medical screening, and ultimately increased risk for communicable and non-communicable disease. Many women do not monitor their cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk or receive regular medical screenings. A health recommendation tool (HeaRT) that provides women with profiled, individually tailored information about recommended tests and screening was designed to improve women's engagement in preventive health. This study characterized utilization of the tool in a real world setting.
