The Construction and Application of a Mobile Health Management Program for Elderly Depression Based on the Patterns of Cognitive Function Changes

Based on the changing law of cognitive function, combined with the behavior change wheel theory and the health behavior process orientation model, we constructed a mobile health management program for geriatric depression. The aim is to explore the effect of this intervention program on the health behavior of elderly patients with depression; and to verify the effect of the intervention program on improving the primary outcome and other secondary outcomes of elderly patients with depression, with a view to providing a scientific basis for the management of depression in the elderly and promoting the optimization of personalized intervention strategies.
