Cancer is one of the most prevalent diseases in
Europe and the world. Significant correlations between dietary
habits and cancer incidence and mortality have been
confirmed by the literature. Physical activity habits are also
directly implicated in the incidence of cancer. Lifestyle
behaviour change may be benefited by using mobile technology
to deliver health behaviour interventions. M-Health offers a
promising cost-efficient approach to deliver en-masse
interventions. Smartphone apps with constructs such as
gamification and personalized have shown potential for
helping individuals lose weight and maintain healthy lifestyle
habits. However, evidence-based content and theory-based
strategies have not been incorporated by those apps
systematically yet. The aim of the current work is to put the
foundations for a methodologically rigorous exploration of
wellness/health intervention literature/app landscape towards
detailed design specifications for connected health m-apps. In
this context, both the overall work plan is described as well as
the details for the significant steps of application space and
literature space review. Both strategies for research and initial
outcomes of it are presented. The expected evidence based
design process for patient centered health and wellness
interventions is going to be the primary input in the
implementation process of upcoming patient centered
health/wellness m-health interventions.ENJECT COST-STSM-ECOST-STSM-TD1405-220216-07045
