Initial requirements were refined from analysis of test cases with elevated risk predicted by <i>DSC</i> logic compared to risk perceived by a clinician working group; <i>DTO</i> testing sessions with clinicians; <i>PDQ</i> responses from patients; and focus groups with clinicians and patient advisors using storyboarding to model the integrated interventions. Mixed methods analysis of participant responses was used to identify final requirements and potential implementation barriers.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Final requirements from analysis of 10 test cases predicted by the <i>DSC</i>, 18 clinician <i>DTO</i> participants, and 39 <i>PDQ</i> responses included the following: <i>DSC</i> configurable parameters (variables, weights) to adjust baseline risk estimates in real-time based on new clinical data collected during hospitalization; more concise <i>DTO</i> wording and flexibility for clinicians to conduct the <i>DTO</i> with or without the patient present; and integration of <i>PDQ</i> responses into the <i>DSC</i> to ensure closed-looped communication with clinicians. Analysis of focus groups confirmed that tight integration of the interventions with the EHR would be necessary to prompt clinicians to reconsider the working diagnosis in cases with elevated diagnostic error (DE) risk or uncertainty. Potential implementation barriers included alert fatigue and distrust of the risk algorithm (<i>DSC</i>); time constraints, redundancies, and concerns about disclosing uncertainty to patients (<i>DTO</i>); and patient disagreement with the care team's diagnosis (<i>PDQ</i>).</p><p><strong>Discussion: </strong>A user-centered approach led to evolution of requirements for 3 interventions targeting key diagnostic process failures in hospitalized patients at risk for DE.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>We identify challenges and offer lessons from our user-centered design process.</p>","PeriodicalId":36278,"journal":{"name":"JAMIA Open","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/a6/b8/ooad031.PMC10172040.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9523709","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Misinformation was evaluated on a scale (low, medium, and high) using a codebook developed by experts in infectious diseases. Multivariable modeling was used to evaluate factors associated with number of views and presence of user comments indicating intention to change behavior. One hundred and sixty-six TikTok videos were identified and reviewed. Moderate misinformation was present in 36 (22%) videos viewed a median of 6.8 million times (interquartile range [IQR] 3.6-16 million), and high-level misinformation was present in 11 (7%) videos viewed a median of 9.4 million times (IQR 5.1-18 million). After controlling for characteristics and content, videos containing moderate misinformation were less likely to generate a user response indicating intended behavior change. By contrast, videos containing high-level misinformation were less likely to be viewed but demonstrated a nonsignificant trend towards higher engagement among viewers.
