Muzima Mobile Application for Screening Hypertension and Diabetes: A User Experience of the App Among Community Health Workers in Rwanda.

Mobile technology has become the leading utility in the social and well-being of people especially in low-resource settings. The use of mobile applications in healthcare promise to improve care and treatment. This study explored the user experience of muzima mobile application among community health workers in Rwanda. We used three data collection methods: observation, Key informant interviews and focus group discussions. We analysed data using thematic content analysis. We found that users were able to complete tasks in the app although some less experienced and older participants struggled to complete the tasks. Users felt that the application helped them to screen and manage patients with diabetes and hypertension in the community which reduced frequent visits to the health centers. Users felt that the application needs improvements in the workflow to facilitate the ease of use. They suggested to digitse other health programs implemented by community health workers. To improve the use and ensure wider implementation, there is a need to consider users' needs and concerns as discussed in this paper.
