Description
ZhiRu Li and co-authors review in 2024 phone and web health tools that help young people with long-term illness manage their own care. More children with chronic disease now live into adulthood, and they must move from child to adult health services while building self-care skills. Digital tools could ease that handover, and young people already own the devices.
The team screened over sixteen thousand studies and kept twenty-two. The tools ranged from plain text reminders to web games with clinician contact. Six themes covered the field, from drug reminders and symptom tracking to goal setting and rewards. Young users found most tools handy, easy, and within reach. Use faded over time, though, and blocks included slow video uploads, phone access gaps, reading level, and language. The authors weigh both the promise and the drop-off problem.
