Can Patient Contributed Data (PCD) Leverage Connected Health Technology for Cardiac Rehabilitation in Austria?
Studies in health technology and informatics(2023)
Abstract
New technologies such as devices, apps, smartphones, and sensors not only enable people to self-monitor their health but also share their health data with healthcare professionals. Data collection and dissemination occur across a wide variety of environments and settings, tracking everything from biometric data to mood and behavior, which has been termed Patient Contributed Data (PCD). In this work, we created a patient journey, enabled by PCD, to shape a connected health model for Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) in Austria. Consequently, we highlighted the potential PCD benefit, which is a postulated increasing uptake of CR and improved patient outcomes through apps in a home-based setting. Finally, we addressed the related challenges and policy barriers that hinder the implementation of CR-connected health in Austria and identified actions to be taken.
