@Article{信息:doi 10.2196 / / jmir。9388，作者=“Par{\'e}， Guy和Leaver, Chad和Bourget, Claire”，标题=“加拿大数字健康自我跟踪运动的传播:一项全国性调查的结果”，期刊=“J Med Internet Res”，年=“2018”，月=“May”，日=“02”，卷=“20”，数=“5”，页=“e177”，关键词=“自我跟踪”;量化自我;可穿戴设备;活动追踪;背景:随着移动应用程序、消费者可穿戴设备和智能医疗设备的日益普及，越来越多的人开始自我跟踪和管理他们的个人健康数据。目的:本研究的目的是调查数字自我跟踪运动在加拿大的传播。它对这一现象提供了全面而详细的描述。它检查了数字自我跟踪器、传统自我跟踪器和非跟踪器的概况，进一步调查了自我跟踪的主要动机和不跟踪的原因;采用互联医疗技术的障碍; users' appreciation of their self-tracking devices, including what they perceive to be the main benefits; factors that influence people's intention to continue using connected care technologies in the future; and the reasons for usage discontinuance. Methods: We conducted an online survey with a sample of 4109 Canadian adults, one of the largest ever. To ensure a representative sample, quota method was used (gender, age), following stratification by region. The maximum margin of error is estimated at 1.6{\%}, 19 times out of 20. Results: Our findings reveal that 66.20{\%} (2720/4109) of our respondents regularly self-track one or more aspects of their health. About one in 4 respondents (1014/4109, 24.68{\%}) currently owns a wearable or smart medical device, and 57.20{\%} (580/1014) use their devices on a regular basis for self-tracking purposes. Digital self-trackers are typically young or mature adults, healthy, employed, university educated, with an annual family income of over {\$}80,000 CAD. The most popular reported device is the fitness tracker or smartwatch that can capture a range of parameters. Currently, mobile apps and digital self-tracking devices are mainly used to monitor physical activity (856/1669, 51.13{\%}), nutrition (545/1669, 32.65{\%}), sleep patterns (482/1669, 28.88{\%}) and, to a much lesser extent, cardiovascular and pulmonary biomarkers (215/1669, 12.88{\%}), medication intake (126/1669, 7.55{\%}), and glucose level (79/1669, 4.73{\%}). Most users of connected care technologies (481/580, 83.0{\%}) are highly satisfied and 88.2{\%} (511/580) intend to continue using their apps and devices in the future. A majority said smart digital devices have allowed them to maintain or improve their health condition (398/580, 68.5{\%}) and to be better informed about their health in general (387/580, 66.6{\%}). About 33.80{\%} of our sample (1389/4109) is composed of people who do not monitor their health or well-being on a regular basis. Conclusions: Our study shows an opportunity to advance the health of Canadians through connected care technologies. Our findings can be used to set baseline information for future research on the rise of digital health self-tracking and its impacts. Although the use of mobile apps, consumer wearables, and smart medical devices could potentially benefit the growing population of patients with chronic conditions, the question remains as to whether it will diffuse broadly beyond early adopters and across cost inequities.
