UsabilityMetrics

AccordingtotheNISTGuidetotheProcessesApproachforImprovingtheUsabilityofElectronic

HealthRecords(NISTIR7741,November2010)EHRsshouldsupportaprocessthatprovidesahigh

levelofusabilityforallusers.Thegoalisforuserstointeractwiththesystemeffectively,efficiently,

andwithanacceptablelevelofsatisfaction.Tothisend,metricsforeffectiveness,efficiencyand

usersatisfactionwerecapturedduringtheusabilitytesting.Thegoalsofthetestweretoassess:

• EffectivenessoftheExscribeEHRsoftwarebymeasuringparticipantsuccessratesand

errors.

• EfficiencyoftheExscribeEHRsoftwareSoftwarebymeasuringtheaveragetasktimeand

pathdeviations.

• SatisfactionwiththeExscribeEHRsoftwarebymeasuringease-of-useratings.

DataScoringTable2detailshowtaskswerescored,errorsevaluated,andthetimedataanalyzed.Table2.ScoringProtocolsforEffectiveness,Efficiency,andSatisfaction

Measures RationaleandScoring

Effectiveness:• TaskSuccess

A task was counted as “Success” if the participant was able to achieve thecorrect outcome,without assistance,within the time allotted on a per taskbasis.ThetotalnumberofSuccesseswascalculatedforeachtaskandthendividedbythetotalnumberoftimesthattaskwasattempted.Resultsareprovidedasapercentage.

Effectiveness:• TaskFailures

If the participant abandoned the task, did not reach the correct answer orperformed it incorrectly, or reached the end of the allotted time beforesuccessfulcompletion,thetaskwascountedas“Fail.”Notasktimesweretakenforfailedattempts.Thetotalnumberoferrorswascalculatedforeachtaskanddividedbythetotalnumberoftimesthattaskwasattempted.Resultsarepresentedastheaverageerrorrate.Note:Notalldeviationsarecountedaserrors

Effectiveness:• Prompted

Successes

Becausesometasksaredependentuponthesuccessfulcompletionofprevioustasks,participantsmayreceivealimitednumberof“prompts”tohelppreparethesystemdataforthepre-requisitesforsubsequenttasks.Whenaparticipantwasable tocomplete thedataentryona taskwith3orfewer prompts, the taskwas counted as an “Assisted” completion. No tasktimeswererecordedforAssistedcompletions.

Efficiency:• Task

Deviations

The participant’s path (i.e., steps) through the application was recorded.Deviations occur if for example, the participant navigated to an incorrectscreen, clicked on an incorrect menu item, followed an incorrect link, orinteractedincorrectlywithanon-screencontrol.

Efficiency:• TaskTime

Each task was timed from the administrator’s prompt “Begin” until said,“Done.” If the participant failed to say, “Done,” timing stopped when theparticipantstoppedperformingthetask.Onlytasktimesfortasksthatweresuccessfullycompletedwereincludedintheaveragetasktimeanalysis.Averagetimepertaskwascalculatedforeachtask.

17

Satisfaction:• EaseofUse

ratings• System

Satisfaction

Participant’ssubjective impressionof theeaseofuseof theapplicationwasmeasured by administering both a single post-task question aswell as twopost-sessionquestionnaires.Aftereachtask,theparticipantdeterminedonascaleof1to5theirsubjectivesatisfaction with performance on the task. These data are averaged acrossparticipants.Tomeasureparticipants’confidenceinandlikeabilityoftheEHRoverall,thetesting team administered electronic versions of the SystemUsability Scale(SUS)andtheComputerSystemUsabilityQuestionnaire(CSUQ).SeetheSUSquestionnaireasAppendixD.,andtheCSUQasAppendixE.
