Journal Club:Tools for Evaluating Digital Health Innovations

Digital Health Intelligence and BCS Health and Care are happy to announce their agreement to run a regular Journal Club where the authors of peer-reviewed informatics papers, published in BMJ Health and Care Informatics, host online journal club sessions of interest to members of the Digital Health Networks online community. The new Journal Club is intended to make articles of potential interest available to a wider audience of NHS IT leaders and professionals and build on the existing partnership between BCS Health and Care and Digital Health. It is our pleasure to invite you to join our first Journal Club on Tools for Evaluating Digital Health Innovations chaired by Tim Benson. All you need to do is to read the article below and join us on 18 Jun, 18.00.

In this session Tim Benson will share some of the thinking that led to the development of a new family of measures for evaluating digital health innovations.  These cover: Innovation readiness, digital confidence, innovation adoption, user satisfaction and behaviour change.  These measures have been mapped to the NASSS (non-adoption, abandonment, scale-up, spread and sustainability) framework, developed by Professor Trish Greenhalgh.
