Methods A search of experimental and quasi-experimental publications related to older adults and web-based SM was conducted. The search identified 12 articles representing 10 distinct studies that were used for review and critique. Results Articles most frequently investigated web-based SM targeting diabetes and heart disease. Interventions incorporated a variety of technologies including visual-charting, instant messenger, among others. Overall the web-based SM for older adults resulted in positive effects for most outcomes, including: healthcare utilization, depression, loneliness, social support, quality of life, self-efficacy, anxiety, disease specific outcomes, functioning levels, diet, exercise, and health status. Discussion While these studies suggest that web-based SM may be effective in producing positive health outcomes for older adults, more research is needed to focus on the efficacy and appropriateness of such interventions for older adults. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research systematic review tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
