The study aimed to develop and pilot test an Integrated Technology-Moderated Institutional Health Promotion Model for university staff in Nigeria. An operational research approach using mixed concurrent design was adopted to develop the model, and pretest-posttest method was used to evaluate the utilization and effectiveness of the developed model. The participants in the study were university staff. Health-promoting lifestyle behavior and health status were measured via the adapted Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile II instrument. The emerging model (an Integrated Technology-Moderated Institutional Health Promotion Model, which is an Android phone app named Tertiary Staff Health Promotion App) was deployed. Data were collected before and 12 weeks after the app deployment. The quantitative and qualitative data findings were combined to develop an integrated technology-moderated institutional health promotion model as a means to enhance health-promoting lifestyle behavior and health status of staff. The result of the pilot testing of the model showed that the model enhances health-promoting lifestyle behaviors and improves the health status of staff. Nurses, especially in community/public health nursing practice, can provide innovative interventions to drive and enhance health-promoting lifestyle behavior and improve health status of workers and other population groups through effective use of information and communication technology.
该研究旨在为尼日利亚的大学工作人员开发并试点测试一种综合技术调节的机构健康促进模式。采用混合并发设计的运筹学方法来开发该模式，并使用前测-后测方法来评估所开发模式的利用率和有效性。该研究的参与者为大学工作人员。通过改编后的《健康促进生活方式量表II》工具来测量促进健康的生活方式行为和健康状况。所形成的模式（一种综合技术调节的机构健康促进模式，是一款名为“高校教职工健康促进应用程序”的安卓手机应用）得以部署。在应用程序部署前和部署12周后收集数据。将定量和定性数据结果相结合，以开发一种综合技术调节的机构健康促进模式，作为增强工作人员促进健康的生活方式行为和健康状况的一种手段。该模式的试点测试结果表明，该模式可增强促进健康的生活方式行为，并改善工作人员的健康状况。护士，尤其是在社区/公共卫生护理实践中，可通过有效利用信息通信技术，提供创新干预措施，以推动和增强促进健康的生活方式行为，并改善工作人员及其他人群的健康状况。
