移动健康(MHealth)干预使用移动技术(平板电脑和智能手机)提供平台进行干预，以改善健康结果。尽管越来越多的人接受，但对于消费者如何参与和坚持移动健康干预措施，人们几乎没有什么了解。这项研究分析了一项随机临床试验的干预组(n=42)的使用数据，该试验测试了ezPARENT计划的有效性，并提供了使用参与度和依从性指标的建议。参与度通过家长使用ezPARENT的情况(持续时间、频率和活动)和遵从性指数(完成的各个模块的总和、访问ezPARENT的次数和访问之间的最长时间)来衡量。在为期3个月的干预期间，家长在每个模块上花费的时间为M=37.15分钟，并有M=13.55次的项目访问。家长们在69.5天的时间里访问了该项目，完成了82%的单元。这些数据支持父母将使用以数字方式提供的干预计划；参与度和遵从性指标在评估计划采纳方面很有用。
Mobile health (mHealth) interventions use mobile technology (tablets and smartphones) delivery platforms for interventions to improve health outcomes. Despite growing acceptance, there is little understanding of how consumers engage with and adhere to mHealth interventions. This study analyzes usage data from the intervention arm (n = 42) of a randomized clinical trial testing the efficacy of the ezPARENT program and provides recommendations for using engagement and adherence metrics. Engagement was measured by parent usage (duration, frequency, and activity) of ezPARENT and adherence using an adherence index (the sum of individual modules completed, number of visits to ezPARENT, and maximum time between visits). Parents spent M = 37.15 min per module and had M = 13.55 program visits in the 3-month intervention period. Parents visited the program over a period of M = 69.5 days and completed 82% of the modules. These data provide support that parents will use intervention programs delivered digitally; engagement and adherence metrics are useful in evaluating program uptake.
