Area of Science:

  • Health Sciences
  • Technology in Healthcare
  • Nursing Informatics

Background:

  • Home care (HC) is increasingly utilizing health technologies.
  • Understanding the concept of health technologies in HC is crucial for effective implementation.
  • Existing literature requires synthesis to define the core components of health technologies in HC.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the concept of health technologies within the home care setting.
  • To define the attributes, antecedents, and consequences of health technologies in HC.
  • To establish a clear conceptual framework for health technologies in HC.

Main Methods:

  • Integrative literature review.
  • Concept analysis using the Walker and Avant method.
  • Selection and analysis of 81 relevant studies.

Main Results:

  • Key attributes include applied knowledge, communication resources, assistive products, and environmental adaptation/monitoring equipment.
  • Antecedents identified are patient health needs and the drive for improved care management.
  • Consequences encompass enhanced access, care quality, communication, and data/information management.

Conclusions:

  • Health technology in HC is defined as applied knowledge, resources, and equipment (electronic or not).
  • It facilitates continuous monitoring, adaptation, information generation, and remote/in-person assistance for health maintenance, recovery, and rehabilitation.
  • This conceptualization aids in optimizing the use and integration of technologies in home care settings.
