What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Demonstrate that the following PRO instruments which were designed as paper-based are equivalent to the nSpire Health ePRO (electronic patient reported outcome)

    The primary measures to demonstrate equivalency of electronic to paper PRO instruments are Usability and Cognitive Debriefing.

    Usability data is gathered using systematic observation under controlled conditions to determine how well the device may be used by subjects.

    Qualitative, Content Analysis of Cognitive Debriefing Data The cognitive debriefing data will be content analyzed for subject understanding of the instructions on the device used to deliver the PRO instrument.

    Measured: 60 minutes

What does the primary outcome measure?

Demonstrate that the following PRO instruments which were designed as paper-based are equivalent to the nSpire Health ePRO (electronic patient reported outcome) (time frame: 60 minutes). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
