BACKGROUND Avoiding technological innovation does not simplify life. In fact, using internet-based medical services can enhance the quality of life for older adults. context an aging population and growing integration information technology, demand among adults is gaining increased attention. While scholars have highlighted important role intergenerational support in promoting digital inclusion adults, research on relationship between adults’ intentions to seek online care remains limited. OBJECTIVE This study aims (1) explore association support, information, intention online, (2) examine mediating technology perception trust, as well moderating eHealth literacy. METHODS A cross-sectional survey was conducted China, collecting 958 valid responses from aged 60 years above. vast majority participants were ages 75 (771/958, 80.5%). Of participants, 559 (58.4%) resided rural areas, while 399 (41.6%) lived urban areas. The included questions perceived usefulness, ease use, literacy, online. Structural equation modeling linear regression analysis applied internet.

Background: The increasing interest in remote patient monitoring technologies patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) requires a phased and stepwise investigative approach, which includes high-risk clinical subgroups who stand to benefit most from such innovations. Methods: Patients aged &gt; 40 spirometry-confirmed COPD presenting current acute exacerbation (ECOPD) were recruited tertiary centre Day Hospital this prespecified feasibility study. Heart rate, respiratory oxygen saturation, skin temperature, daily activity overnight sleep quality parameters collected remotely by wearable biometric wristband ring for 21 consecutive days. “Total ambulatory wear time” “percent of useable data” eligible vital sign calculated. Correlation agreement between cardiorespiratory data performed using Spearman’s correlation rho the Bland-Altman test, respectively. User experience was measured end-of-study System Usability Scale (SUS) questionnaires. Results: Nine participants (mean age 66.8 ± 8.4 years, 22% female, mean FEV 1 1.4L (34.1% predicted), “severe” (56%) or “very severe” (44%) COPD) experiencing ECOPD included. Wear time 94% (wristband) 88.2% (ring) total study period. Wristband-obtained (every min, artefact-free) revealed 99.2% 98.6% all heart rate temperature data, respectively, useable, whereas only 17.6% useable.

Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) services have shifted from only in-person to digital consultations. This may present a challenge older patients if they are not digitally literate. scoping review aimed identify and analyse tools for assessing health literacy guide dietetic practice in screening care needs training. Publications that used or tested tool with participants aged 45 years clinical, community, population settings were deemed eligible. Five scientific databases, reference lists of identified studies, publications key authors searched peer-reviewed articles published English between 2014 March 2024. Relevant data on participant characteristics, design, validation charted. The generalisability studies applicability assessed using 4-point scales. Searches yielded 1823 articles, which 66 included the final analysis. Eight identified, electronic Health Literacy Scale (eHEALS) was most frequently used. After evaluating validity feasibility these tools, adapted eHEALS emerged as applicable delivered MNT. Future should explore effective educational programmes less literate populations better connect them online MNT healthcare services.
