A Narrative Review to Identify Promising Approaches for Digital Health Interventions to Support Emotion Regulation for Adolescents With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

A Narrative Review to Identify Promising Approaches for Digital Health Interventions to Support Emotion Regulation for Adolescents With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

As smartphone-delivered digital health interventions (DHIs) have a strong potential to meet this need, the purpose of this review is to synthesize the relevant evidence on the most promising intervention approaches, components, and other design and development considerations to provide recommendations for emotion regulation DHI development for adolescents with ADHD. We use a narrative review approach because of the heterogeneity of the relevant evidence base.

Developing an App for Real-Time Daily Life Observations in a Nursing Home Setting: Qualitative User-Centered Co-Design Approach

Developing an App for Real-Time Daily Life Observations in a Nursing Home Setting: Qualitative User-Centered Co-Design Approach

A user-centered design (UCD) approach is vital for developing software that truly meets users’ needs [14,18]. UCD emphasizes involving users throughout the design process to ensure that the product aligns with their requirements and preferences [19]. This involves iterative cycles of user need assessment, design, prototyping, and testing [20].

Simulation of Contraceptive Access for Adolescents and Young Adults Using a Pharmacist-Staffed e-Platform: Development, Usability, and Pilot Testing Study

Simulation of Contraceptive Access for Adolescents and Young Adults Using a Pharmacist-Staffed e-Platform: Development, Usability, and Pilot Testing Study

Participants were prompted to remark on ease of use, design aspects that are confusing or that slow task completion, and graphical elements, such as font size, ratios of images to words, and color schemes. The study team observed this process and took structured notes to capture information regarding domains from the sociotechnical model to ensure the optimization of service delivery [22].

Improving Pediatric Patients’ Magnetic Resonance Imaging Experience With an In-Bore Solution: Design and Usability Study

Improving Pediatric Patients’ Magnetic Resonance Imaging Experience With an In-Bore Solution: Design and Usability Study

We also redesigned an educational scanner for the waiting room (the Kitten Scanner; [23]) to feature the same design elements, voice, and terminology as Scan Buddy. The main character featured in our solutions is a child-friendly elephant that is well-liked by children: Ollie the Elephant [24]. Consistently using design elements like characters, visuals, voices, and terminology throughout multiple touchpoints in the care pathway can provide children with a sense of familiarity.

A Comparison of Patient and Provider Perspectives on an Electronic Health Record–Based Discharge Communication Tool: Survey Study

A Comparison of Patient and Provider Perspectives on an Electronic Health Record–Based Discharge Communication Tool: Survey Study

We added another domain named design quality to capture providers’ perceived information quality of the tool. We also measured the overall satisfaction of the PDIS experience. Existing literature suggests that design quality can significantly influence staff adoption and implementation of the technologies [21].

Developing Assessments for Key Stakeholders in Pediatric Congenital Heart Disease: Qualitative Pilot Study to Inform Designing of a Medical Education Toy

Developing Assessments for Key Stakeholders in Pediatric Congenital Heart Disease: Qualitative Pilot Study to Inform Designing of a Medical Education Toy

Parents appreciated the playful and instructive design of the assessments, with one commenting, “It’s like teaching by itself through playtime. She’s telling me all you've asked her.” After finishing their assessments, we provided paper to children like C4, whose mother was also being assessed. This engagement prompted them to draw, becoming so engrossed to continue that they requested us to stay there even after the doctor’s arrival (Figure 2).

A User-Centered Design Approach for a Screening App for People With Cognitive Impairment (digiDEM-SCREEN): Development and Usability Study

A User-Centered Design Approach for a Screening App for People With Cognitive Impairment (digiDEM-SCREEN): Development and Usability Study

The goal of our current project, in this context, was to establish a user-centered design process for the development of digi DEM-SCREEN, a user-friendly app to support the early identification of persons with slight symptoms of dementia.

A Mindfulness-Based App Intervention for Pregnant Women: Qualitative Evaluation of a Prototype Using Multiple Case Studies

A Mindfulness-Based App Intervention for Pregnant Women: Qualitative Evaluation of a Prototype Using Multiple Case Studies

Building on established mindfulness concepts proven effective in face-to-face interventions [23-25], the study adopted a user-centered design approach to ensure alignment of the intervention with users’ needs and contextual use [26,27]. The fundamental principle of user-centered design is to actively involve users in the design and development stages, ensuring that they influence the evolution of the product [28].
