[Type 2 diabetes patients use E-health to manage disease willingness and influence mechanisms].
Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus have a high willingness to use E-health technologies like APP or Wechat mini-programs, particularly younger individuals and those with high school/college education. Increasing perceived usefulness, self-efficacy, and external promotion can enhance willingness to use. However, higher disease perception and higher social support are associated with decreased willingness to use. Perceived ease of use and self-efficacy can also affect willingness to use through multiple mechanisms.
