To evaluate the usability of the "Quali+" mobile application prototype for people with high blood pressure.
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.
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).
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+”高血压人群移动应用原型的可用性。
2021 年 6 月至 7 月，在一所大学医院进行了移动应用原型的描述性、横断面启发式评估研究。参与者为巴西伯南布哥州坎皮纳格兰德市的 22 名高血压患者。为了衡量可用性，应用了智能手机可用性问卷。使用描述性统计数据来评估分数。
整体可用性平均得分为 105.8（7.44 分），最低得分为 83 分，最高得分为 113 分。可用性处于最高水平（80 分）。
可用性评估表明，尽管它是一个原型，但该应用程序具有良好的可用性，可考虑用于健康自我管理的常规使用。需要进一步研究来验证其有效性。
