      ab: Medicine administration is a key component of nursing practice that encompasses consumer education. However, the information a consumer considers important in their health journey is difficult to ascertain in a timely manner. This paper describes one part of a multi-stage project aiming to develop a new tool to assist nurses, pharmacists and other healthcare professionals to better meet the medicine information needs of consumers. The development of this questionnaire involved a multi-step co-design process. Here we report on our findings to the research question of "How can co-design be used in the development of a patient-reported outcomes tool?" Specifically, we report on the process of using a "think-aloud" process to aid co-design in the early testing and refining of the data collection tool (Medicines Information Needs for Individuals -- Questionnaire: MINI -Q). Several rounds of "think-aloud" interviews with consumers were used to determine the tool's acceptability for use, initially as a paper version and then as a digital version completed using a tablet device. Consumers (n=40), with an average of three medical conditions and taking six regular medicines, were interviewed. They identified 315 issues with the MINI -Q. Their suggestions included clearer wording, reduced length, simplified sentence structure, changed formatting, type of response options, and additional information to collect. The "think-aloud" technique was helpful to improve the usability and acceptability of the tool. The next stage is to test the final version with a larger sample to determine acceptability and face validity.
