Abstract
<h3>Research Objectives</h3> Awareness that traumatic brain injury (TBI) can be a chronic condition has increased in the last decade. To manage TBI as a chronic condition, methods to provide clinical surveillance need to be developed. To determine the extent to which participants with TBI were satisfied with, valued, and were able to utilize a surveillance prototype for traumatic brain injury. <h3>Design</h3> Descriptive study and qualitative content analyses. <h3>Setting</h3> Community. <h3>Participants</h3> Adult patients with traumatic brain injury. <h3>Interventions</h3> All participants were simultaneously participating in a larger RCT investigating the impact of Resource Facilitation (RF). MyBrain© was part of the RF intervention and was offered to all participants randomized to RF. Data was collected from all RF participants utilizing MyBrain©. <h3>Main Outcome Measures</h3> The Post-Study System Usability Questionnaire (PSSUQ) is a 16-item standardized questionnaire designed to assess users' perceived satisfaction of software in addition to a customized satisfaction scale designed to target satisfaction with MyBrain© specifically. The custom satisfaction scale is a 12-item Likert scale with five free-response questions. <h3>Results</h3> 71% of the participants either agreed/strongly-agreed that they were satisfied with MyBrain© overall on the custom satisfaction measure. Satisfaction ratings on the PSSUQ ranged from 70% to 100% across items. Approximately, 71% of the participants also agreed or strongly agreed that access to the self-management applications associated with the surveillance prototype. A variety of qualitative information was obtained to inform revision of the prototype, and the results of qualitative content analyses will also be presented. <h3>Conclusions</h3> The initial prototype for surveillance was generally found to be feasible and the majority of the participants were satisfied and valued access to the self-management applications. These findings will be used for enhancement of MyBrain© <h3>Author(s) Disclosures</h3> None.
