dc.description.abstractVarious factors contribute to the success of mhealth and telehealth implementation and use, and must be considered before technologies move beyond the pilot project stage. Success factors identified in this literature review were categorized by: 1) technology (including technical support to maintain, troubleshoot and train users; network coverage and stable energy resource); 2) user acceptance, facilitated by unrestricted use of the device, perceived usefulness to the worker, adequate literacy, or previous experience of use; 3) short- and long-term funding; 4) organizational factors, such as the existence of a well-organized health system; and 5) political or legislative aspects, in this case strong government support.en
