Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention I

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention I

A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.
The health belief model (HBM) attempts to predict health-related behavior in specific belief patterns. According to the HBM, a person's...

Area of Science:

Healthcare Management
Digital Health
Chronic Disease Management

Background:

Modern chronic care models emphasize 'productive interactions' among patients, their community, and care providers.
Healthcare systems should integrate with community resources for comprehensive patient care.
Shared medical visits are a model for collaborative care in complex chronic diseases like diabetes.

Purpose of the Study:

To describe the design considerations for iHealthSpace, a web-based personal health application.
To enable multi-faceted connectivity and collaborative services for shared medical visits.
To support the management of diabetes in a large academic practice.

Main Methods:

Design and development of a web-based personal health application (iHealthSpace).
Focus on enabling connectivity and collaborative services for shared medical visits.
Application tailored for patients with diabetes in an academic practice setting.

Main Results:

iHealthSpace is designed to facilitate 'productive interactions' within the chronic care model.
The application supports collaborative care by integrating patients, their community, and healthcare teams.
It provides a platform for managing complex chronic diseases, specifically diabetes, through shared medical visits.

Conclusions:

Web-based applications like iHealthSpace are crucial for supporting modern chronic care constructs.
Facilitating connectivity and collaboration enhances patient-centered care and chronic disease management.
The iHealthSpace model can improve outcomes for patients with diabetes through integrated care approaches.
