A study powered by Centralive and published in JMIR Formative Research explores how pregnant users adapt to self-monitoring eHealth systems. Using a sociomaterial perspective, the study highlights access as a collaborative process between user adaptations and system mediation.
Key Findings from the Study
- Access involves skill-building, language adaptability, and system flexibility.
- High-use participants focused on interpreting data, while low-use participants valued language and customization.
- Understanding these dynamics can guide the design of user-centric, inclusive eHealth tools.
At Centralive, we are dedicated to helping researchers and developers create adaptable and accessible eHealth systems. By enabling detailed analysis and supporting real-world testing, we aim to bridge the gap between user needs and system capabilities, improving outcomes for all.
