Abstract

Asthma is a serious global health problem and can be seen in all age groups and a number of asthma management applications have been created aiming to increase self-management. The aim of this paper is to identify nudging strategy for the asthma management application based on the context awareness. Nudging feature is proposed to increase the self-management, patient engagement, and symptoms control. The final proposed application was implemented from a theoretical perspective.
