“…Some scholars believe that regardless of the context in which innovation may take place, open innovation models often have clear advantages over conventional closed innovation models [57]. This model is among the most promising innovation strategies in the mobile industry [58,59] and has significant advantages in healthcare domain [60], while still faces acceptance and implementation challenges [61]. • Integrated: A mMH app should not be viewed as a standalone tool which can be used individually.…”

Design for mobile mental health: an exploratory review

A large number of mobile mental health apps are available to the public but current knowledge about requirements of designing such solutions is scarce, especially from sociotechnical and user centred points of view. Due to the significant role of mobile apps in the mental health service models, identifying the design requirements of mobile mental health solutions is crucial. Some of those requirements have been addressed individually in the literature, but there are few research studies that show a comprehensive picture of this domain. This exploratory review aims to facilitate such holistic understanding. The main search keywords of the review were identified in a cross-disciplinary requirements workshop. The search was started by finding some core references in the healthcare databases. A wider range of references then has been explored using a snowball method. Findings showed that there is a good understanding of individual design requirements in current literature but there are few examples of implementing a combination of different design requirements in real world products. The design processes specifically developed for mobile mental health apps are also rare. Most studies on operational mobile mental health apps address major mental health issues while prevention and wellbeing areas are underdeveloped. In conclusion, the main recommendations for designing future mobile mental health solutions include: moving towards sociotechnical and open design strategies, understanding and creating shared value, recognizing all dimensions of efficacy, bridging design and medical research and development, and considering an ecosystem perspective.

“…These circumstances include high reliance on other organizationswhether other firms, government research institutes or end-user communities-for the supply, development and/or commercialization of new technologies [39,40]. The approach to open innovation, which involves the integration of the public into the corporate innovation process, is well suited to the field of health care, which is also confirmed in a number of the literature sources [41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50]. The analysis of research data showed that, despite a number of constraints to open innovation (for example, the complex organizations of health care, the need to establish routines for capturing knowledge from patients and clinicians, regulations and healthcare data laws), the practice of open innovation can bring positive results, such as improving the quality of care and reducing costs.…”

The active digitalization of the healthcare system has given impetus to the emergence of a new type of enterprise—high-tech medical organizations (HMO). Their main distinguishing feature is the use of innovative high-tech medical equipment. However, the high cost of this equipment has become a factor slowing down the development of such organizations. This paper considers the life-cycle contract (LCC) as a special form of interaction between stakeholders and investments throughout the life cycles of equipment. Moreover, to provide technological support, continuous acquisition and life-cycle support (CALS) technologies, which are based on the same principles of working with the life cycle as LCC, are proposed. This question turned out to be a significant research gap, which was not sufficiently reflected in the available world studies. Thus, the aim of the current study is to describe the features of the use of LCC for HMO using CALS technologies and the impact of the life cycle of high-tech medical equipment on LCC, as well as to present the innovative component of the proposed model. Based on the analysis of the literature and the best world practices, the authors propose a visualization of the interaction of all stakeholders within the LCC for HMO. Such a decision is extremely relevant for developing organizations, public authorities and investors around the world.

“…In setting the HEART project for the European call under Horizon 2020, Philips, UniMC and KUL were able to carefully define the problem (i.e. how to use IoT tools and sensors to develop healthcare solutions for a better quality of life), build a common vision and plan all the activities to be carried out in a four years' time frame (Hyrkäs et al, 2020;Wassrin et al, 2015). The starting phases of planning were essential to build a strong commitment towards the project.…”
