Usability and User Experience of a Digital Platform Prototype (Healthy Bone) to Promote Pharmacological and Nonpharmacological Treatment in Patients With Osteoporosis: Mixed Methods Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Osteoporosis-related fractures significantly impact older adults, often leading to disability and even premature death. While pharmacological and nonpharmacological interventions are widely recommended for managing osteoporosis, adherence to these interventions remains low. To address this challenge, we developed the Healthy Bone digital platform (desktop, mobile app, and smart TV internet-based) for use in clinical settings to improve disease management and treatment adherence. It integrates a multimedia health-related behavioral change program with a patient monitoring and management system.

Objective

This study aimed to evaluate the usability and user experience of the desktop version of the Healthy Bone digital platform prototype from the patients' perspective
