Abstract:
Objective:To systematically analyze and integrate the psychological experience of heart failure patients using mobile medical applications (App) for self-management.Methods:Qualitative research on the self-management experience of heart failure patients using mobile medical App was retrieved through computer on PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Australian Joanna Briggs Evidence-Based Health Care Center Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, and China Biomedical Literature Database. The search period was from the establishment of the database to December 30, 2022. The quality of literature was evaluated in accordance with the quality evaluation criteria for qualitative research of the Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center (2016) . The results were integrated using the aggregative integration method.Results:A total of 14 articles were included, 32 research results were extracted, and 7 new categories were summarized. Finally, three integrated results were obtained (positive experience of heart failure patients using mobile medical App, risks and challenges of heart failure patients using mobile medical App, and preferences and expectations of heart failure patients towards mobile medical App) .Conclusions:The mobile medical App provides new ideas for self-management of heart failure patients, and its effectiveness is recognized by most heart failure patients, who perceive significant benefits.
