如果目标用户缺乏有效吸引他们的技能,电子健康工具就没有什么价值。由于美国和加拿大近一半的成年人的识字水平低于充分参与信息丰富的社会所需的水平,因此,利用信息技术促进健康和援助保健或电子保健的影响是相当大的。参与电子医疗需要一套技能,或自身的素养。引入了电子健康素养的概念,并将其定义为从电子资源中寻找、发现、理解和评估健康信息的能力,并将所获得的知识应用于处理或解决健康问题。在本文中,介绍了一个由多种素养类型组成的电子健康素养模型,其中包括消费者需要从电子健康中获得直接利益的一组基本技能的大纲。每种识字类型的概况以及患者-客户可能出现的问题示例与资源列表一起提供,以帮助卫生从业人员支持提高每个领域的患者-客户的识字水平。通过一组临床案例说明了该模型的各个方面,以展示卫生从业人员如何在临床或公共卫生实践中解决电子卫生素养问题。讨论了该模型的潜在应用前景。
Electronic health tools provide little value if the intended users lack the skills to effectively engage them. With nearly half the adult population in the United States and Canada having literacy levels below what is needed to fully engage in an information-rich society, the implications for using information technology to promote health and aid in health care, or for eHealth, are considerable. Engaging with eHealth requires a skill set, or literacy, of its own. The concept of eHealth literacy is introduced and defined as the ability to seek, find, understand, and appraise health information from electronic sources and apply the knowledge gained to addressing or solving a health problem. In this paper, a model of eHealth literacy is introduced, comprised of multiple literacy types, including an outline of a set of fundamental skills consumers require to derive direct benefits from eHealth. A profile of each literacy type with examples of the problems patient-clients might present is provided along with a resource list to aid health practitioners in supporting literacy improvement with their patient-clients across each domain. Facets of the model are illustrated through a set of clinical cases to demonstrate how health practitioners can address eHealth literacy issues in clinical or public health practice. Potential future applications of the model are discussed.
