Self-completed online dietary recalls as an alternative method of dietary assessment for dietetic outpatient appointments: A feasibility study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Integrating digital dietary assessment within dietetic care could save time and reduce costs, at the same time as increasing patient engagement. The present study explores the feasibility of implementing a web-based dietary assessment tool, myfood24 (https://www.myfood24.org), into routine healthcare.

Methods

This mixed methods feasibility study recruited dietitians and patients from a National Health Service (NHS) hospital outpatient setting. Patients completed and shared three online 24-h dietary recalls in advance, which were used as a dietary assessment by dietitians. Recruitment data were collected and questionnaires on technology, usability, and acceptability were completed. Patient interviews and focus groups with dietitians were conducted.
