The acceptability, adoption and feasibility of mobile health interventions for diabetes and hypertension care among Ghanaian healthcare workers

Healthcare workers found the mHealth app feasible and acceptable. The findings highlight the potential of digital tools to improve chronic disease care in resource-limited settings. The study demonstrates how contextual factors in LMIC settings reshape key TAM constructs, with clear implications for mHealth policy, scale-up strategies, and refinement of technology adoption theory.

Abstract

Healthcare workers found the mHealth app feasible and acceptable. The findings highlight the potential of digital tools to improve chronic disease care in resource-limited settings. The study demonstrates how contextual factors in LMIC settings reshape key TAM constructs, with clear implications for mHealth policy, scale-up strategies, and refinement of technology adoption theory.
