AbstractThe potential of digital health interventions for chronic disease self-management is well recognized. Multiple systematic reviews were conducted focusing on specific conditions (Hewitt et al., 2020; Shen et al., 2019; Slattery et al., 2019) or technologies (Lee et al., 2018; Stellefson et al., 2013). But when applying digital health intervention in older adults, intervention strategies are important because factors such as cognition, motivation, physical ability, and perception might act as barriers (Wildenbos et al., 2018). To our knowledge, it was hard to find the article systematically reviewing strategies to deliver digital health intervention for older adults’ chronic disease self-management. This systematic review aimed to explore strategies for chronic disease self-management interventions using digital health technologies for community-dwelling older adults.Keywords: self-management, chronic disease, aged, telemedicine
