AbstractBackground In the past decade digital health research has exponentially increased. Concurrently, consumer involvement in digital health research has grown, but often relegated to late stages like user experience testing, for which a fundamental capability is digital health literacy. In-depth knowledge about how digital health tools and platforms are developed, evaluated, and implemented is necessary for higher levels of meaningful consumer involvement in digital health research.

2.4 Data analysis Thematic synthesis was used to inductively identify concepts.21 All participant quotations and text from the “results” and “discussion/conclusion” section of each study were also extracted. Two reviewers (PN, SC) coded the data line by line by using HyperRESEARCH software (version 4.5.1) and inductively developed a preliminary coding framework that captured the perspectives of patients with diabetes on CGM and sensor-augmented insulin pump therapy.
