Abstract

Pulmonary Disease (COPD) exacerbations. However, the effect of telehealth for COPD remains uncertain, which may be due to a lack of attention to usability during the development of telehealth solutions. The aim was to evaluate the usability of a telehealth system for COPD using the Danish Telehealth Usability Questionnaire. A total of 96 people with COPD, who were already using a telehealth system consisting of weekly measurements of physiological parameters and symptom-related questionnaires, were included. The D-TUQ was used to assess the usability of the telehealth system. The overall experience with the usability of the telehealth system was mainly positive, but there was room for improvement.
