Abstract:
The acceptance and feasibility for using mobile health technologies for diabetes management in Saudi Arabia remains to be explored. We created the Mobile Health Effectiveness and Readiness Questionnaire (MHERQ) to measure its validity and reliability in assessing the readiness of Saudi diabetic patients use of mobile health technologies for diabetes self-management. The study was able to measure the validity and reliability of MHERQ and found that MHERQ provides promising results for Saudi diabetic patients' use of mobile health technologies.
