Abstract
The health technology assessment is fundamental in the acquisition of novel technologies and it is an important tool for the decision makers. With the development of novel emerging mobile-health apps, devices, software and In-formation and Communication Technologies (ICT), the evaluation over a wide range of available products is a critical issue. Here we propose a questionnaire-based approach to assess ICT tools able to facilitate the lives of people with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). We used a 5-point Likert scale as a psychometric scale to assess experts’ opinions regarding novel tools for the T2DM self-management. Preliminary data collected through the administration of the questionnaire show the relative importance of the functionalities and features of the examined technologies, giving opportunities for future improvements.
