计算能力是健康素养的一个要素，是指理解数字相关信息的能力。当应用于健康行为时，它描述了个人访问、处理、解释图形和概率健康信息并采取行动的能力的程度。作为一种认知和功能技能，算术能力低与慢性病治疗效果不佳相关；因此，计算能力是患者遵守药物治疗方案能力的重要组成部分。在这篇手稿中，我们描述了新颖的视觉干预措施，以提高困难的慢性病人群的药物依从性。我们使用血浆药物浓度的个性化图形表示和动态疾病状态模拟来克服计算能力差的问题。这些方法结合了高效、精确、清晰的图形数据；制图技术侧重于明智地使用颜色强度；动画可以增加参与度并强调信息传递。
Numeracy is an element of health literacy that refers to the ability to understand numerically related information. When applied to health behaviors, it describes the degree to which individuals have the capacity to access, process, interpret, and act on graphical and probabilistic health information. As a cognitive and functional skill, low numeracy correlates with poor outcomes in the management of chronic diseases; numeracy is therefore an essential component of patients’ capacity to adhere to medication regimens. In this manuscript, we describe novel visual interventions to improve medication adherence in difficult, chronically ill populations. We have used personalized graphical representations of plasma medication concentration and dynamic disease state simulation to overcome poor numeracy. These methods incorporate efficient, precise, and clear graphical data; cartographical techniques focused on judicious use of color intensities; and animation that increases engagement and accentuates information transfer.
