Abstract

Illness trajectories are particularly characterised by the temporal dimension of human existence. In the area of low back pain, patients often have challenging temporal experiences such as unproductive waiting time and fragmented, repetitive consultations over many years. This study seeks to investigate relationships between digital technologies, temporal agency, and illness, through describing how users experienced a new digital solution, BackTrace, targeting patients with low back pain. The study builds on six months of ethnographic fieldwork, including semi-structured interviews, participant observation and a workshop. The study shows how the introduction of the digital solution could facilitate new possibilities of temporal actions for individuals living with and receiving care for low back pain. For many research participants, the use of BackTrace facilitated a useful visualisation of their past and present low back pain state; BackTrace could assist participants in navigating different external temporal demands; and it allocated time devoted to managing their back pain in everyday life and in consultations with health professionals. The study discusses how temporality can be a useful analytical entrance point to operationalise and explore the often-desired goal of empowerment in patient pathways.

可视化,导航和创造时间:在腰痛治疗和康复中使用数字解决方案。
人类存在的时间维度特别具有疾病轨迹的特征。在腰痛领域,患者往往有挑战性的时间经验,如无效的等待时间和碎片化,重复咨询多年。本研究旨在调查数字技术、时间代理和疾病之间的关系,通过描述用户如何体验一种新的数字解决方案,BackTrace,针对腰痛患者。这项研究建立在6个月的人种学田野调查的基础上,包括半结构化访谈、参与者观察和研讨会。该研究表明,数字解决方案的引入如何为患有下腰痛并接受治疗的个人提供时间行动的新可能性。对于许多研究参与者来说,使用BackTrace有助于他们过去和现在腰痛状态的可视化;回溯可以帮助被试驾驭不同的外部时间需求;它还专门分配了时间来管理他们在日常生活中的背痛,并与健康专业人员进行咨询。该研究讨论了时间性如何成为一个有用的分析入口点,以操作和探索患者途径中经常期望的授权目标。

期刊介绍: Health: is published four times per year and attempts in each number to offer a mix of articles that inform or that provoke debate. The readership of the journal is wide and drawn from different disciplines and from workers both inside and outside the health care professions. Widely abstracted, Health: ensures authors an extensive and informed readership for their work. It also seeks to offer authors as short a delay as possible between submission and publication. Most articles are reviewed within 4-6 weeks of submission and those accepted are published within a year of that decision.
