Domains and Methods Used to Assess Home Telemonitoring Scalability: Systematic Review.
Salomé AzevedoTeresa Cipriano RodriguesAna Rita LondralPublished in: JMIR mHealth and uHealth (2021)
This systematic review suggests that when assessing scalability, researchers select the domains specifically related to the intervention while ignoring others related to the contextual, technological, and environmental factors, which are also relevant. Additionally, studies report using different methods to evaluate the same domain, which makes comparison difficult. Future work should address research on the minimum required domains to assess the scalability of remote telemonitoring services and suggest methods that allow comparison among studies to provide better support to decision makers during large-scale implementation.
