Interface design recommendations for computerised clinical audit and feedback: Hybrid usability evidence from a research-led system.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Audit and Feedback (A&F) is a widely used quality improvement technique that measures clinicians' clinical performance and reports it back to them. Computerised A&F (e-A&F) system interfaces may consist of four key components: (1) Summaries of clinical performance; (2) Patient lists; (3) Patient-level data; (4) Recommended actions. There is a lack of evidence regarding how to best design e-A&F interfaces; establishing such evidence is key to maximising usability, and in turn improving patient safety.

Aim

To evaluate the usability of a novel theoretically-informed and research-led e-A&F system for primary care (the Performance Improvement plaN GeneratoR: PINGR).

Objectives

(1) Describe PINGR's design, rationale and theoretical basis; (2) Identify usability i
