“…This notion found support in a recent study of patients who share transparent visit notes with others, highlighting that more than half of the participants would like the option of letting family members or friends access their records [12]. And also in a study of patients using mobile phone application, it was emphasized that a vast majority would allow their health records to be shared with family members, medical workers, and health care providers [13].…”

With the introduction of modern health technologies, the phenomenon of patients tracking health records has increased considerably in the recent past. The current study aims to examine the sharing of health-tracking records (HTR) by patients with different categories of acquaintances (spouse/partner, relatives, doctors, other). In this paper, we explore the critical factors that impact sharing of self-tracked information across two levels of sensitivity of HTR. Our study investigates how health motivation (HM), perceived health status (PHS), severity of health, and age influence sharing of self-tracked information. To do so, we adapted and applied the Health Belief Model (HBM) as a theoretical framework. The study employed multinomial logistic regression analysis to investigate the various factors that influence sharing of two types of HTR with different acquaintances. The statistical results were weighted to correct for known demographic discrepancies. Results indicated that HM, severity, and age substantially increase the likelihood of sharing HTR with health or medical professionals in comparison to other categories. In contrast, PHS increases the likelihood of information sharing with "other" acquaintances as opposed to with doctors. These findings are consistent with existing theory on HBM, wherein behavior appears to be predicted on the basis of/by both the individual's motivation to achieve an outcome and the expectation that a specific action will result in that outcome.

“…Some studies show that Baby Boomers are willing to use computer-based programs to store personal health information [60] , [61] , such as PHRs, smart phones, and Personal Health Application (PHA). However, whether the health information stored in these information systems is organized in the way Baby Boomers prefer is unclear.…”

Challenges and Opportunities with Empowering Baby Boomers for Personal Health Information Management Using Consumer Health Information Technologies: an Ecological Perspective

et al. 2014

“Baby Boomers” (adults born between the years of 1946 and 1964) make up the largest segment of the population in many countries, including the United States (about 78 million Americans) [1]. As Baby Boomers reach retirement age and beyond, many will have increasing medical needs and thus demand more health care resources that will challenge the healthcare system. Baby Boomers will likely accelerate the movement toward patient self-management and prevention efforts. Consumer Health Information Technologies (CHIT) hold promise for empowering health consumers to take an active role in health maintenance and disease management, and thus, have the potential to address Baby Boomers' health needs. Such innovations require changes in health care practice and processes that take into account Baby Boomers' personal health needs, preferences, health culture, and abilities to use these technologies. Without foundational knowledge of barriers and opportunities, Baby Boomers may not realize the potential of these innovations for improving self-management of health and health outcomes. However, research to date has not adequately explored the degree to which Baby Boomers are ready to embrace consumer health information technology and how their unique subcultures affect adoption and diffusion. This position paper describes an ecological conceptual framework for understanding and studying CHIT aimed at satisfying the personal health needs of Baby Boomers. We explore existing literature to provide a detailed depiction of our proposed conceptual framework, which focuses characteristics influencing Baby Boomers and their Personal Health Information Management (PHIM) and potential information problems. Using our ecological framework as a backdrop, we provide insight and implications for future research based on literature and underlying theories represented in our model.

Anesthesia problem cards are considered a useful tool to increase patient safety and are frequently issued in clinical practice; however, in the document's current form its full potential for risk minimization cannot be exploited. Structural changes are required to increase documentation quality and reproducibility. Concerning its informational content, the spectrum of included complications and their individual solutions need to be expanded to meet the requirements of modern anesthetic practice.
