Quality of Informed Consent and Interface Usability in Primary Care e-Consultation: Cross-Sectional Study
The findings demonstrate that current methods for collecting consent in telemedical applications may not be fit for purpose and potentially fail to collect valid informed consent. However, increased usability scores from users do appear to drive improvements in the quality of consent collected. Therefore, decision-makers should place importance on high-quality interface design when building or procuring these systems. We have also provided the QuICCDig score for further use.
