Abstract
Using a Design Thinking and co-design methodology, hospital staff andconsumers developed a novel mobile health app for heart failure self-management.Various stakeholders engaged in three development stages: interviews, designworkshops and prototype iterations. Eleven of 18 co-design team members reflectedon the co-design process and design outcomes. A total of 144 data points werecollected: 96 about the co-design process and 48 about the design outcomes.Successes and failures reflect the strengths and weaknesses of operationalising codesign in practice. Overall, participants were surprised the design outcomes wereachieved. The app was considered a supportive tool for meaningful self-monitoringand patients believed the app would be applicable to their situations. Our findingssuggest that local co-design can be achieved through meaningful partnerships, andmanaging stakeholders was key to the project’s success.
