The Importance of Digital Health Literacy in an Evolving Parkinson's Disease Care System.

Digital health technologies are growing at a rapid pace and changing the healthcare landscape. Our current understanding of digital health literacy in Parkinson's disease (PD) is limited. In this review, we discuss the potential challenges of low digital health literacy in PD with particular attention to telehealth, deep brain stimulation, wearable sensors, and smartphone applications. We also highlight inequities in access to digital health technologies. Future research is needed to better understand digital health literacy among individuals with PD and to develop effective solutions. We must invest resources to evaluate, understand, and enhance digital health literacy for individuals with PD.
