Abstract
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this work is to present a Training Tool designed to support healthcare professionals involved in the diagnosis and management of Sjögren's syndrome.
METHODS: The Training Tool aims to fulfil the gap of targeted education by providing a structured protocol of training including state of the art guidelines and practices. For the development of the Training Tool, latest relevant technologies have been used to assure efficiency and usability. Core functionalities include training by a series of multimedia courses, testing during the learning process, and profiling for monitoring the progress. An iterative requirement analysis process was established involving a large number of clinical experts, with the objective to identify user's training needs.
RESULTS: Comprehensive usability evaluation was performed by applying, an Unmoderated Remote Usability Test resulting to 97.2% Success Rate; and the well-established System Usability Scale, reaching a score of 90.4 which classifies the Training Tool as "A" graded-excellent.
CONCLUSIONS: The Training Tool offers open-online training of healthcare professionals involved in the diagnosis and management of Sjögren's syndrome, using a well-designed training protocol in highly usable manner. To our knowledge, this is the first such tool for Sjögren's syndrome.
