Acceptance and user experiences of a wearable device for management of hospitalized patients in COVID-19 designated wards in Ho Chi Minh City, Viet Nam
Wearable devices have been used extensively both inside and outside of the hospital setting. During the COVID-19 pandemic in some contexts, there was an increased need to remotely monitor pulse and saturated oxygen for patients due to the lack of staff and bedside monitors. A prototype of a remote monitoring system using wearable pulse oximeter devices was implemented at Hospital for Tropical Diseases in Ho Chi Minh City from August to December 2021. We used rapid pragmatic methods to assess the use and acceptability of the system using components of the Technology Acceptance Model. We facilitated a user-centred design workshop to improve the use of the technology in the future. Designing and implementing the devices to be more nurse-centric from its introduction could have helped to increase the efficiency and its use.
