Abstract

Heart failure self-management can be complex and challenging. We are collaborating with healthcareprofessionals, patients and families to co-design a consumer mHealth application in support of heart failureself-management. Four patient-modelled personas, developed through ethnographic interviews, were used inco-design workshop activities to represent the patient experience and associated health challenges. We explainhow persona use benefited patients, the design team and the project lead in terms of efficiency, effectivenessand anonymity, in our commitment to developing a mHealth application which meets the needs of ourpatients and is clinically relevant.
