Evaluation of usability, feasibility and acceptance of the digital training diary Trainingslog for individuals with axSpA: a mixed-method study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Physical activity (PA), including regular exercise, is essential for the successful management of axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA). To promote a physically active lifestyle, a digital training diary (Trainingslog) was developed in an user-centered approach by the Swiss Ankylosing Spondylitis Association (SVMB). A training diary promotes PA through feedback, goal setting and self-monitoring, which can also be used for PA counselling by physiotherapists (PT). Usability, feasibility and acceptance are essential for the successful implementation of a mobile Health Intervention such as the Trainingslog. The study objective is to evaluate the usability, feasibility and acceptance of the Trainingslog for individuals with axSpA and PTs.
