Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
The change of use intention of wearable monitoring device
It will be measured using a 4-item, 5-point Likert scale adopted from Bhattacherjee (2001) and Windasari et al. (2021). The five-point scale ranges from 1 = not at all satisfied to 5 = very certain, with higher scores representing a higher chance of continuing to use the WMD.
Data collection will be conducted at the 1-month (T1), 3-month (T2), and 6-month (T3) time points
Secondary Outcomes (8)
The change of adherence rate of wearing wearable monitoring device
Data collection will be conducted at the 1-month (T1), 3-month (T2), and 6-month (T3) time points
The change in quality of life among baseline (T0) and at the 1-month (T1), 3-month (T2), and 6-month (T3) time points
baseline (T0) and at the 1-month (T1), 3-month (T2), and 6-month (T3) time points
The change of health service utilization among baseline (T0) and at the 1-month (T1), 3-month (T2), and 6-month (T3) time points

Study Arms (2)
Intervention group
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will receive a 3-month Live With Wearable Monitoring Device program.
Control group
NO INTERVENTIONUsual care. As with the participants in the intervention group, those in the control group can utilize the features in the Wearable Monitoring Device.
Interventions
The participants in the intervention group will receive a home visit by a Community Healthcare Worker in the first month, and biweekly motivational messages via Whats App in the second and third months.
