Illustrating User Needs for eHealth With Experience Map: Interview Study With Chronic Kidney Disease Patients
The experience map is a promising method for illustrating user needs and communicating the patient's voice for eHealth development. eHealth offers possibilities to support patient's everyday life with chronic disease. The patient's situation and capacity to use eHealth solutions vary with their everyday challenges, opportunities, and their current stage of treatment. The kidney disease experience map will be used and further developed in the ongoing research project "Better Health at Home-Optimized Human-Centered Care of Predialysis and Home Dialysis Patients" (2022 to 2026).
