Antibiotic stewardship is continuously evolving to incorporate results from novel research, clinical findings, and specialist recommendations. Numerous dedicated information sources, including web-based solutions, are available to keep medical practitioners informed. However, the provided information is often extensive, requiring users to extract the relevant facts. This study aimed to deliver an information platform that provides references, links, and information in a straightforward and engaging manner. Implementing a high-fidelity prototype prioritized medical and patient-oriented functionalities, structured around questions and quizzes. Additionally, the platform offers access to professional references, such as official healthcare guidelines and scientific articles. The development process adhered to design principles and included user testing with established usability measures (SUS, Nielsen's heuristics), resulting in satisfactory scores from IT experts and somewhat lower scores from users. Although designed to cater to a broader range of users, more work is needed to improve usability for the general public.
抗生素管理不断发展,纳入新研究、临床发现和专家建议的结果。有许多专门的信息来源,包括基于网络的解决方案,可让医疗从业者随时了解最新信息。然而,提供的信息通常很广泛,需要用户提取相关事实。本研究旨在提供一个信息平台,以简单、吸引人的方式提供参考、链接和信息。通过实施高保真原型,优先考虑医疗和以患者为中心的功能,围绕问题和测验进行构建。此外,该平台还提供专业参考资料的访问权限,如官方医疗保健指南和科学文章。开发过程遵循设计原则,并进行了用户测试,使用了既定的可用性度量标准(SUS、尼尔森的启发式),结果得到了 IT 专家的满意评分和用户的稍低评分。尽管该平台旨在迎合更广泛的用户群体,但仍需要进一步努力提高其对普通大众的可用性。
