Abstract

Objective: To evaluate the usability of the "Quali+" mobile application prototype for people with high blood pressure.

Method: Descriptive, cross-sectional study of heuristic evaluation of a mobile application prototype carried out between June and July 2021, in a university hospital. Participants were 22 people with arterial hypertension in the city of Campina Grande, PB, Brazil. To measure usability, the Smartphone Usability questionnaiRE instrument was applied. Levels (70 points have good usability. Descriptive statistics were used.

Results: The overall usability average was 105.8(7.44 points, with the lowest score being 83 and the highest being 113. Usability was at the highest level(80 points).

Conclusion: The usability evaluation showed that, although it is a prototype, the application has good usability and can be considered for routine use in health self-management. Future research is needed to verify its effectiveness.

评估 Quali+ 移动应用程序对高血压患者的可用性。

目的：评估 "Quali+"移动应用程序原型对高血压患者的可用性：评估针对高血压患者的 "Quali+"移动应用程序原型的可用性：2021年6月至7月，在一所大学医院对移动应用原型进行启发式评估的描述性横断面研究。参与者为巴西巴西利亚州坎皮纳格朗德市的 22 名动脉高血压患者。为了测量可用性，我们使用了智能手机可用性问卷调查工具（Smartphone Usability questionnaiRE）。70分以上为可用性良好。采用了描述性统计方法：总体可用性平均分为 105.8（7.44 分），最低分为 83 分，最高分为 113 分。可用性处于最高水平（80 分）：可用性评估结果表明，尽管该应用程序只是一个原型，但它具有良好的可用性，可以考虑在健康自我管理中常规使用。未来的研究需要验证其有效性。
