An Experimental Comparison of a Co-Design Visualizing Personal Drug Information and Patient Information Leaflets:Usability Aspects
Providing patients with specific information about their own drugs can reduce unintentional misuse and improve compliance.Searching for information is time-consuming when information is not personalized and is written using medical vocabulary that is difficult for patients to understand.In this study we explored patient information needs regarding visualizing of drug information and interrelationships by conducting a total of four co-design workshops with patients,other users and pharmacists.We developed a prototype and drug ontology to support reasoning about drug interactions.We evaluated individual performance in finding information,understanding the drug interactions,and learning from the provided information in the prototype compared to using patient information leaflets(PILs).We concluded that interactive visualization of drug information helps individuals find information about drugs,their side effects and interactions more quickly and correctly compared to using PILs.Our study is limited to co-morbid patients with transient ischaemic attack with several chronic diseases.
