The objective of this study was to propose a comprehensive architecture of a mHealth system aimed at boosting the active and informed participation of patients in their care process, while at the same time overcoming the current technical and psychological\/clinical issues highlighted by the existing literature.<\/jats:p><jats:p>After having studied the current challenges outlined in the literature, both in terms of technological and human requirements, we focused our attention on some specific psychological aspects with a view to providing patients with a comprehensive and personalized solution. Our approach has been reinforced through the results of a preliminary assessment we conducted on 22 patients with chronic conditions. The main goal of such an assessment was to provide a preliminary understanding of their needs in a real context, both in terms of self-awareness and of their predisposition toward the use of IT solutions.<\/jats:p><jats:p>According to the specific needs and features, such as mindfulness and gamification, which were identified through the literature and the preliminary assessment, we designed a comprehensive open architecture able to provide a tailor-made solution linked to specific individuals\u2019 needs.<\/jats:p><jats:p>The present study represents the preliminary step towards the development of a solution aimed at enhancing patients\u2019 actual perception and encouraging self-management and selfawareness for a better lifestyle. Future work regards further identification of pathology-related needs and requirements through focus groups including all stakeholders in order to describe the architecture and functionality in greater detail.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Citation: Lasorsa I, D\u2019Antrassi P, Aj\u010devi\u0107 M, Stellato K, Di Lenarda A, Marceglia S, Accardo A.
