How Digital Therapeutics Are Urging the Need for a Paradigm Shift: From Evidence-Based Health Care to Evidence-Based Well-being

How Digital Therapeutics Are Urging the Need for a Paradigm Shift: From Evidence-Based Health Care to Evidence-Based Well-being

We explain in this viewpoint why the current health care landscape, which we will call the “evidence-based health care paradigm,” does not allow for digital therapeutics to meet user needs and values and, consequently, does not reach successful implementation. Building on our experiences as researchers in digital health, we call for a paradigm shift in health care and sketch out a future paradigm that would enable more successful evaluation and, consequently, implementation of digital therapeutics.

Identifying Frameworks for Validation and Monitoring of Consensual Behavioral Intervention Technologies: Narrative Review

To assess the efficacy and safety of a health product, there is a need to use a specific scientific paradigm, which is “a set of principles and methods shared by a scientific community” [21]. A framework is a model for planning processes or for action plans, which brings a systematic approach to developing, managing, and evaluating interventions [22]. Regulators, researchers, and manufacturers share a consensual paradigm for drugs [19,20].
