Abstract

An increasing number telehealth systems continuously collect selfreported data from patients. Objective and subjective collection of health data facilitates early detection and treatment of chronic conditions, but patient needs in these telehealth contexts are poorly understood. It is for example not clear how to support patients’ reflection on their daily self-reported data. Inadequate support can result in fragmented daily health monitoring and poor adherence. This paper contributes 1) a synthesis of the related but hitherto disjunct personal informatics literature on self-tracking and 2) an indepth field study on how six people suffering chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) used a telehealth system as part oftheir health self-tracking. Our analysis showed that a telehealth solution which relegated patients to mere data suppliers missed outon opportunities to address user needs. We extended Li’s 5-stage model to show where reflection manifested when interacting with the telehealth system.
