- ItemCo-Designing a Medication Notification Application with Multi-Channel Reminders(Association for Information Systems (AIS), 2021-02-24) Chanane, N; Mirza, F; Naeem, MAEvidence suggests that medication adherence applications (apps) are one of the most effective methods to remind patients to take medication on time. Reminders via apps are overwhelming today, consumers discard using them after a brief period of initial usage, eventually becoming unfavourable towards them and not using them at all. This study aims to qualitatively determine the key features and design of medication reminder apps that facilitate or disrupt usage from the users’ perceptive. Three focus groups were conducted with participants aged between 15 and 65+ (N= 12). The participants evaluated a smart medication reminder prototype, then sketched and discussed their thoughts and perceptions within the group. Participants identified, 1) Multi-channel reminders, 2) Medication intake acknowledgement for reporting and 3) Seamless addition of medications and associated reminders as important elements. Understanding consumers’ needs and concerns will inform the future development of medication reminder apps that are acceptable and valuable to consumers.
- ItemInsights of Medication Adherence Management: A Qualitative Study with Healthcare Professionals and Technology Designers(Association for Information Systems (AIS), 2020-02-24) Chanane, N; Mirza, F; Naeem, MAPoor Medication Adherence (MA) remains a major challenge to ensuring good patient health. This qualitative study examines health professionals’ and health technology designers’ insights for improving this problem using mHealth. We interviewed twenty-three New Zealand health professionals and analysed the interviews using content analysis. In this paper, we discuss the four main themes that emerged from our analysis: 1) patient characteristics, 2) collaboration among members of the health team, 3) medication impact including effectiveness and side effects 4) technology acceptance. We present a conceptual model to visually summarise MA issues from healthcare professionals' and technology designers’ perspective.
