This study seeks to assess usability and acceptance of E-Consent on mobile devices such as tablet computers for collecting universal biobank consents. Usability inspection occurred via cognitive walkthroughs and heuristics evaluations, supplemented by surveys to capture health literacy, patient engagement, and other metrics. 17 patients of varied ages, backgrounds, and occupations participated in the study. The System Usability Scale (SUS) provided a standardized reference for usability and satisfaction, and the mean result of 84.4 placed this mobile iteration in the top 10th percentile. A semi-structured qualitative interview provided copious actionable feedback, which will inform the next iteration of this project. Overall, this implementation of the E-Consent framework on mobile devices was considered easy-to-use, satisfying, and engaging, allowing users to progress through the consent materials at their own pace. The platform has once again demonstrated high usability and high levels of user acceptance, this time in a novel setting.
本研究旨在评估电子知情同意书在平板电脑等移动设备上用于收集通用生物样本库知情同意书的可用性和可接受性。通过认知走查和启发式评估进行可用性检查，并辅以调查以获取健康素养、患者参与度和其他指标。17名年龄、背景和职业各异的患者参与了该研究。系统可用性量表（SUS）为可用性和满意度提供了标准化参考，84.4的平均结果使该移动版本跻身前10%。一次半结构化定性访谈提供了大量可操作的反馈，这将为该项目的下一次迭代提供参考。总体而言，这种在移动设备上实施的电子知情同意书框架被认为易于使用、令人满意且具有吸引力，允许用户按照自己的节奏浏览同意书材料。该平台再次展示了高可用性和高水平的用户接受度，这次是在一个新的环境中。
