TI  - Differences Between Patients With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Interested and 
      Uninterested in the Use of a Patient Platform (e-VitaDM-2/ZODIAC-41).
PG  - 230-237
AB  - The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is rising in the Netherlands, 
      and health care's workload will increase. e-Health applications may increase 
      patients' participation in their care and could help reducing workload. To 
      explore potential users, differences in patients interested and uninterested in 
      e-Health are characterized. A prospective cohort study was initiated in the 
      Drenthe region of the Netherlands. This study included inviting T2DM patients to 
      use e-Health (the e-Vita platform). Patients were offered access to clinical 
      data, laboratory results, educational modules, and a self-management support 
      program. Data were obtained from health record systems of general practices and 
      questionnaires. Out of 2674 patients, 1378 (51.5%) participated in the study. Of 
      the 1378 patients, 974 (70.7%) were interested in e-Health. Of 974, 405 (41.6%) 
      were registered for e-Health. Interested patients were more often male, were 
      younger, had shorter T2DM duration, and were higher educated. Of 405, 110 (27.2%) 
      used the e-Health. No differences were found between users and nonusers of 
      e-Health. Patients interested in e-Health were more often male, were younger, had 
      shorter T2DM duration, and were more often higher educated. However, even in this 
      interested group, the actual participation rate remained low. Together with 
      characteristics and attitudes of caregivers and T2DM patients, the look and 
      content of the e-Health platform strategies that increase interest and 
      participation need to be developed.
