人们对老年人的个人健康信息管理(PHIM)知之甚少。我们描述了华盛顿大学 SOARING(研究老年人和研究信息需求和目标)研究的初步结果,这是一项老年人 PHIM 的参与式设计调查。我们对生活在各种居住环境中的老年人 (n=71) 进行了深入访谈。令人惊讶的是,21% 的参与者表示使用患者门户。另外 17% 的参与者表示以前使用过或预计将来会使用门户网站。我们确定了偏好和需求以及门户使用的障碍和促进因素。我们的研究结果表明,旨在满足老年人特定需求的患者门户可以支持 PHIM。我们为扩大研究提供建议。
The personal health information management (PHIM) of older adults is poorly understood. We describe initial results from the SOARING (Studying Older Adults & Researching Information Needs and Goals) study at the University of Washington, a participatory design investigation of PHIM in older adults. We conducted in-depth interviews with older adults (n=71) living in a variety of residential settings. A surprising 21% of participants reported using patient portals. Another 17% of participants reported prior use or anticipated use of portals in the future. We identified preferences and needs as well as barriers and facilitators to portal use. Our findings indicate that patient portals designed to target the specific needs for older adults can suport PHIM. We offer recommendations for expanded research.
