Usability of an Educational Intervention to Overcome Therapeutic Inertia in Multiple Sclerosis Care.

ABSTRACT: Background: Educational interventions are needed to overcome knowledge-to-action gaps in clinical care. We previously tested the feasibility and potential efficacy of an educational intervention that facilitates treatment decisions in multiple sclerosis care. A demonstration of the usability of such an intervention is crucial prior to demonstration of efficacy in a large trial. Objectives: To evaluate the usability of a novel, pilot-tested intervention aimed at neurologists to improve therapeutic decisions in multiple sclerosis (MS) care. Methods: We surveyed 50 neurologists from Chile, Argentina, and Canada randomized to an educational intervention arm of a pilot feasibility study using the System Usability Score (SUS) to assess the usability of a traffic light system
