Clinical Trial Summary

With increased aging population, there is a higher rate of having chronic diseases and cognitive impairment. In order to achieve successful aging, it is important for community-dwelling older adults to perform better self-management with improved health literacy and various kinds of support. The study aims to develop a Community-based E-Health Program (CeHP) for Older Adults Living with Chronic Diseases , evaluate the effectiveness of CeHP, and refine the program based on the outcome measurement. A cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be adopted. A follow-up process evaluation will be conducted to assess the acceptability, strengths and limitations of CeHP based on the participants' perspectives. The research contributes to engage and empower older adults living in the community to manage their chronic condition, and foster collaboration with the goal of translating evidence into action.


Clinical Trial Description

Background: With increased aging population, there is a higher rate of having chronic diseases and cognitive impairment. In order to achieve successful aging, it is important for community-dwelling older adults to perform better self-management with improved health literacy and various kinds of support. Objectives: The study aims to develop a Community-based E-Health Program (CeHP), evaluate the effectiveness of CeHP, and refine the program based on the outcome measurement. Method: The research team will develop the Community-based E-Health Program, and assess the effects of the program. A needs assessment will be carried out using focus group discussion with the older adults. A cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be adopted. A follow-up process evaluation will be conducted to assess the acceptability, strengths and limitations of Community-based E-Health Program based on the participants' perspectives Discussion and conclusion: The proposed research contributes to engage and empower older adults living in the community to manage their chronic condition, and foster collaboration with the goal of translating evidence into action. This research will offer important insights into the need for educating and engaging older adults in managing chronic conditions to promote health and well-being, and therefore contribute to health and well-being of the elderly population. ;
