Current application status of digital empowerment in the management of elderly patients with chronic diseases

Abstract

Abstract: Digital empowerment as a powerful tool for countries to address aging populations,has been widely used in the management of elderly chronic disease patients abroad,while China is still in the early stages of research in this area. In order to optimize the management of digital empowerment in elderly chronic disease patients,the article reviews the current applications and the issues and challenges it brings in the inpatient and outpatient self-management of elderly chronic disease patients both domestically and internationally. It points out three problems：lack of innovation in the concept of digital empowerment targets,lack of age-appropriate design in empowerment tools,and the need for structured empowerment processes and provides recommendations,aiming to provide a reference for the better application of digital empowerment in the management of elderly chronic diseases in China.

Key words: Digital empowerment, Chronic diseases in the elderly, Self-management, Digital integration barriers, Digital divide
