A vital role of the proposed system is to engage individuals to be effective self-managers of their own health. Technology-based interventions to support self-management across the spectrum of chronic diseases have the potential to reach a broader population of patients. We believe that studies featuring extensive research of self-management of patients with different chronic conditions are needed to explore the interaction of technology-based interventions. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessChronic conditionsChronic diseaseExperimental systemSelf managementSelf-managingTechnology-basedVerbal communicationsPatient monitoringPatient treatmentConference Object10.1007/978-1-4614-6154-8_332-s2.0-84884710426
