The Evaluation of a Web-Based Stroke Quality Registry System

Quality registry systems are very useful and have many benefits for clinical experts. Assessing the user experience while working with such a system is one of the most important steps in their development. An evaluation of the quality of the user experience allows designers to improve the system's usability and efficiency. Various usability engineering approaches may be used to analyze and improve the functionality of a Web-based registry system. User experience questionnaires (UEQs) are a reliable and validated tool that have been used to evaluate many systems. The UEQ questionnaire can be linked to the system and users can evaluate the system online. Thus, the gathering of questionnaire data can be a continuous process, allowing for ongoing analysis of the quality of the user experience, leading to a more user-friendly system. Our research focused on the evaluation phase of registry system development and indicated how we can evaluate the quality of the user experience of a registry system. In this paper, a Web-based stroke quality registry system was evaluated through a usability assessment methodology with a UEQ. The results may be applicable to other registry systems.
