The aim was to understand how physicians view the use of digital checklists in a clinical setting. Methods The research was conducted as a qualitative case study with a usability testing approach. Nine test subjects were given seven fictional patient cases, which included picture(s) of the wound with some medical history and details of the wound. The results were analysed according to the usability domains effectiveness, efficiency and engagement. Results With the digital wound management checklist, all test subjects were able to work through patient cases and receive a valid conclusion and recommendations for follow-up procedures. The majority of the test subjects found that it helped in selecting followup procedures. Several test subjects reported that the digital wound management checklist brought structure to the patient assessment and commented on its clear user interface. Improvements pointed out by the test subjects included decreasing the number of mouse clicks. Test subjects reported that they could use the digital wound management checklist in clinical work to assist in patient assessment, especially with more complex cases. Conclusions and implications for clinical practice The digital wound management checklist provides structure to the patient assessment and can either enforce or broaden the clinical decision-making process; thus, it can be useful, especially when assessing more complex cases or when the physician is inexperienced. End-users declared the digital wound management checklist was a tool they would use in their work. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: pictorial research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
