Abstract

eHealth technologies strongly influence healthy lifestyles. In addition to numerous advantages and positive effects, we analyze adverse effects of technologies that are used in everyday life to support a person’s health or health management. Therefore, we conducted short interviews and a literature review to structure aspects of a healthy lifestyle in eight areas related to the potential technology usage. Based on that, this contribution presents a systematic collection of negative effects of eHealth technologies on end users or patients. With regard to our results, this contribution provides seven scientific and six practical implications.
