Evaluation of usability and mobile health content is critical for ensuring effective implementation of technology utilizing interventions tailored to the needs of hospice care providers for people living with dementia in community-based settings.
To evaluate the usability, content, and "readiness to launch" of the Aliviado mobile health app for interdisciplinary team members participating in the Hospice Advanced Dementia Symptom Management and Quality of Life.
Usability of the Aliviado app was assessed in 86 respondents with an adapted IBM Computer Usability Satisfaction Questionnaire following Hospice Advanced Dementia Symptom Management and Quality of Life training and implementation of the mobile app.
More than half of users receiving training employed the mobile app in practice. Users reported use as: Daily-6.3%, Weekly-39.6%, monthly-54.2%. The highest measured attributes were usefulness, value, and effectiveness. Over 90% deemed the app "ready to launch" with no or minimal problems.
This study shows that a newly-developed mobile app is usable and can be successfully adopted for care of people living with dementia.

评估 Aliviado 移动健康应用程序在参与 Hospice Advanced Dementia Symptom Management and Quality of Life 的跨学科团队成员中的可用性、内容和“推出准备就绪”程度。
在接受 Hospice Advanced Dementia Symptom Management 和 Quality of Life 培训和实施移动应用程序后,使用经过改编的 IBM 计算机可用性满意度问卷对 86 名受访者进行了 Aliviado 应用程序的可用性评估。
超过一半接受培训的用户在实践中使用了移动应用程序。用户报告的使用情况为:每日-6.3%,每周-39.6%,每月-54.2%。测量的最高属性是有用性、价值和有效性。超过 90%的人认为该应用程序“准备好推出”,没有或几乎没有问题。
本研究表明,新开发的移动应用程序具有可用性,并可成功用于照顾痴呆症患者。
