[Background]: In recent years, aging has become a global social problem. Intelligent health management technology (IHMT) provides solutions for the elderly to deal with various health risks. However, the elderly are facing many difficulties in using IHMT. Studying the application types of IHMT and the influencing factors of the elderly's acceptance of it will help to improve the use behavior of the elderly. [Methods]: This paper summarizes the application types of IHMT, identifies the influencing factors of the elderly's adaption of IHMT, and makes a systematic comment on the influencing factors. [Results]: We divide the different functions of IHMT for the elderly into four types: self-monitoring, medical care, remote monitoring, and health education. The influencing factors are divided into three types: individual, social, and technology. [Conclusions]: This study finds that IHMT's application covers all aspects of the health services of the elderly. Among these applications, self-monitoring is the most used. We divided the influencing factors of the elderly's acceptance of IHMT into three categories and nine subcategories, having 25 variables.
[背景]:近年来,老龄化已成为一个全球性社会问题。智能健康管理技术(IHMT)为老年人应对各种健康风险提供了解决方案。然而,老年人在使用IHMT时面临诸多困难。研究IHMT的应用类型以及老年人对其接受程度的影响因素,将有助于改善老年人的使用行为。[方法]:本文总结了IHMT的应用类型,识别了老年人采用IHMT的影响因素,并对这些影响因素进行了系统评价。[结果]:我们将IHMT针对老年人的不同功能分为四类:自我监测、医疗护理、远程监测和健康教育。影响因素分为三类:个人、社会和技术。[结论]:本研究发现,IHMT的应用涵盖了老年人健康服务的各个方面。在这些应用中,自我监测使用最为频繁。我们将老年人接受IHMT的影响因素分为三类九个亚类,共有25个变量。
