“…Eighteen of these studies used evidence-based instructional practices to teach participants to use the eHealth application, such as a system of least prompting, most-to-least and least-to-most prompting, constant and progressive time delay prompting, and modellead test format (Ayres & Cihak, 2010;Ayres et al, 2009;Bereznak et al, 2012;Cavkaytar et al, 2017;Cullen, Alber-Morgan, et al, 2017;McMahon et al, 2015;Mechling & O'Brien, 2010;Mechling & Savidge, 2011;Price et al, 2018;Shepley et al, 2018;Smith et al, , 2016Spriggs et al, 2015;Stock et al, 2013;Van Laarhoven, Carreon, Bonneau, of these studies, those providing the intervention worked closely with participants, using modelling and guiding them until independent use was achieved (Campillo et al, 2014;Fage et al, 2018;Padgett, Strickland, & Coles, 2006). In addition, two of these studies used workshops with support staff to help participants become familiar with using the application (De Wit et al, 2015;Kerkhof et al, 2017). Furthermore, seven of these studies reported device training without giving additional details.…”

Around the world, increasing use is being made of health services and information delivered or enhanced over the Internet or related technologies, also referred to as eHealth (Eysenbach, 2001). This development may primarily be inspired by the potential of eHealth to improve the quality of the care provided while also upholding affordable care (Proudfoot et al., 2011). In addition, eHealth provides an opportunity for personalized, tailor-made, remote and on-demand support and treatment (

“…The identification of practical difficulties in these phases will help to design the evaluation study and to develop a dedicated user-oriented implementation strategy (Vernooij-Dassen and Moniz-Cook, 2014). The importance of "hand in hand" technological development and implementation strategies is also acknowledged by (Kerkhof et al, 2016), who developed a memory application to support the independence of clients with dementia or intellectual disabilities.…”

“…In the case of the early stages of dementia, information and communication technology may compensate for some of the cognitive losses and offer functional support. A Pictoplanner for example, can help to structure the day and prompt behavior for people who are no longer able to get through the day independently (Kerkhof et al, 2016).…”

The iterative process inherent to this framework makes it possible to develop a user-oriented intervention, in this case a person-centered program, for the use of tablets in dementia care. Preparatory work will be done to perform a methodologically sound randomized controlled trial (RCT) in the near future, which aims to investigate the contribution of this person-centered program for tablet use to the quality of life of people with dementia and their carers.

Background The use of eHealth is more challenging for people with intellectual disabilities (IDs) than for the general population because the technologies often do not fit the complex needs and living circumstances of people with IDs. A translational gap exists between the developed technology and users’ needs and capabilities. User involvement approaches have been developed to overcome this mismatch during the design, development, and implementation processes of the technology. The effectiveness and use of eHealth have received much scholarly attention, but little is known about user involvement approaches. Objective In this scoping review, we aimed to identify the inclusive approaches currently used for the design, development, and implementation of eHealth for people with IDs. We reviewed how and in what phases people with IDs and other stakeholders were included in these processes. We used 9 domains identified from the Centre for eHealth Research and Disease management road map and the Nonadoption, Abandonment, and challenges to the Scale-up, Spread, and Sustainability framework to gain insight into these processes. Methods We identified both scientific and gray literature through systematic searches in PubMed, Embase, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Cochrane, Web of Science, Google Scholar, and (websites of) relevant intermediate (health care) organizations. We included studies published since 1995 that showed the design, development, or implementation processes of eHealth for people with IDs. Data were analyzed along 9 domains: participatory development, iterative process, value specification, value proposition, technological development and design, organization, external context, implementation, and evaluation. Results The search strategy resulted in 10,639 studies, of which 17 (0.16%) met the inclusion criteria. Various approaches were used to guide user involvement (eg, human or user-centered design and participatory development), most of which applied an iterative process mainly during technological development. The involvement of stakeholders other than end users was described in less detail. The literature focused on the application of eHealth at an individual level and did not consider the organizational context. Inclusive approaches in the design and development phases were well described; however, the implementation phase remained underexposed. Conclusions The participatory development, iterative process, and technological development and design domains showed inclusive approaches applied at the start of and during the development, whereas only a few approaches involved end users and iterative processes at the end of the process and during implementation. The literature focused primarily on the individual use of the technology, and the external, organizational, and financial contextual preconditions received less attention. However, members of this target group rely on their (social) environment for care and support. More attention is needed for these underrepresented domains, and key stakeholders should be included further on in the process to reduce the translational gap that exists between the developed technologies and user needs, capabilities, and context.
