Exploring Perceptions of Technology Use to Support Self-Management Among Older Adults with Cancer and Multimorbidities
Copyright © 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..
OBJECTIVES: Our objective was to explore and describe how older adults engage with technology to support cancer self-management behaviors, particularly as they live with multimorbidity.
DATA SOURCES: We used a qualitative descriptive approach and semi-structured interviews with older adults with cancer who had at least one other chronic condition. Two authors analyzed the data using a descriptive thematic analysis approach using NVivo 12 software.
CONCLUSION: We found that older adults are interested in, if not already, engaging with technology and internet searching to manage their cancer diagnosis and treatment. Data were grouped into three themes: (1) Using technology to take control; (2) Confidence in technology supports competence in self-management; and (3) Desired features for future interventions. Participants felt they might need extra support learning how to craft a search, filter facts, and digest information from the internet to manage their cancer. Those who reported using technology to keep records about their health made more statements reflecting confidence in their technology usage.
IMPLICATION FOR NURSING PRACTICE: Older adults are interested in engaging technology to support self-management. The specific implications that arise from this study are that (1) older adults' interest in engaging with technology has a unique potential to support foundations for self-management behaviors and activities and (2) empowering self-management behaviors and attitudes through technology may result in better treatment outcomes, as evidenced by increased capabilities in the six core self-management skills.
