The most common chronic diseases are cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer, and chronic respiratory disease, Together, they account for 41 million deaths in the world every year, and this number is increasing (World Health Organization).

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimated that about 50% of all adults in the US have one or two chronic diseases and that 25% have two or more (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2017). In Europe, about 50 million adults have multiple chronic diseases, In Sweden, 44% of the population have one chronic disease and 25% two or more (The Swedish Agency for Health and Care Services Analysis, 2014). Apart from the societal challenge with the rising number of elderly, and an increased number having chronic disease, there are also challenges related to the projected shortage of health care professionals. One way to meet these challenges is to make use of new information and communication technologies and to offer easily accessible digital health solutions for older adults with chronic disease as support in their self-care. So the personal emergency response systems (PERS) can be used easily to call for help in an emergency.
