Using the extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model, we analysed responses from 22 participants over a two-phase longitudinal study. Data were collected at two time points (at the beginning of the project and 4-6 weeks after) to assess changes in performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, technology anxiety, adoption timeline, behavioural intention, and usability factors. Quantitative findings showed minor increases across most UTAUT constructs, with a significant rise in Social Influence, suggesting that peer support plays a role in adoption within healthcare settings. Qualitative analysis revealed areas for improvement, such as the need for integrated notifications, enhanced training, a simpler interface, and greater adaptability for users with varying levels of technological proficiency. Our findings underscore the importance of designing user-centred digital health platforms to enhance usability, promote patient empowerment, and support personalised care. These insights provide a basis for refining digital health solutions to better align with user needs and promote sustained engagement across diverse healthcare environments.</p>","PeriodicalId":94357,"journal":{"name":"Studies in health technology and informatics","volume":"323 ","pages":"339-343"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143813330","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The only therapy that may be curative is surgical resection, although this procedure has significant morbidity and necessitates meticulous postoperative care. After surgery, the duration of hospital stay (LOS) is a crucial indicator of clinical results and resource use. Understanding the variables that contribute to prolonged hospital stays is crucial for improving patient care since both organizational and patient-related factors can have a major impact on LOS. This work employs a data-driven approach to examine factors impacting LOS following surgery. Results show that illness severity plays the most significant role in contributing to the increased LOS, therefore posing serious concerns on how to implement strategies to reduce waiting lists and on-time as well as early diagnosis of the disease in order to make appropriate and rapid intervention to both reduce the LOS and improve the healthcare outcome.</p>","PeriodicalId":94357,"journal":{"name":"Studies in health technology and informatics","volume":"323 ","pages":"280-284"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143813396","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By analyzing two case studies - the implementation of a national electronic health record (EHR) system in Switzerland and the use of patient-reported outcomes (PROMs) - we demonstrate how these types of bullshit sometimes emerge in medical informatics.
