Abstract
For elderly people, physical activity (PA) is an important prerequisite for a healthy and self-determined life and provides preventive protection against many chronic diseases. Since a high proportion of this group does not exercise sufficiently in everyday life, new preventive strategies have been developed. In recent years, health technologies have also become increasingly important and offer a potential for primary prevention to promote PA. The aim of this study was to analyze experience with and acceptance of the use of technologies to support PA and to monitor health parameters in people over the age of 65. In addition to identifying concerns, uncertainties and subjective ideas about technologies, requirements for preventive technology should be derived.Guided (semi-structured) interviews were conducted. Interviewing topics included "PA" and "technology". Recruitment took place through a public call and the distribution of flyers. The evaluation was carried out by content analysis with inductive and deductive category formation. In addition, an interdisciplinary requirements analysis was performed on the basis of the transcripts in order to derive needs and requirements for preventive technologies.The interviews were conducted with 33 persons (19 female). The average age was 75 years. Nine participants with a migration background originated from four countries. All participants were active in everyday life. The barriers identified included a lack of motivation and weather conditions. Many participants used health technologies in their everyday lives and were quite open to these developments. However, concern was expressed regarding topics such as data protection and security.Experience and acceptance in dealing with future preventive technologies as well as concerns, ideas and requirements could be inferred from discussions with the heterogeneous target group. General strategies (e.g. notices, press) as well as specific strategies (e.g. multipliers) and sufficient time are important to ensure a target group-specific access to different groups of people.
