摘要:Patient-generated health data (PGHD) can be managed easily by a mobile personal health record (mPHR) and can increase patient engagement. This study investigated the effect of PGHD functions on mPHR usage. We collected usage log data from an mPHR app, My Chart in My Hand (MCMH), for seven years. We analyzed the number of accesses and trends for each menu by age and sex according to the version-up. Generalized estimating equation (GEE) analysis was used to determine the likelihood of continuous app usage according to the menus and version-up. The total number of users of each version were 15,357 and 51,553, respectively. Adult females under 50 years were the most prevalent user group (30.0%). The “My Chart” menu was the most accessed menu, and the total access count increased by ~10 times after the version-up. The “Health Management” menu designed for PGHD showed the largest degree of increase in its likelihood of continuous usage after the version-up (1.245;
p < 0.0001) across menus (range: 0.925–1.050). Notably, improvement of PGHD management in adult females over 50 years is needed.
