Hi all
I am an NCBI volunteer and also a software designer. I have developed a
software technology to aid anyone who has to take medications, it is called
S-PILs. I would like to ask your opinion please? If you could read the
short overview and answer the 4 questions below I would be very grateful.
Overview:
Patient Information Leaflets provided with medications are often
disregarded or the language is too scientific to understand. Smart Patient
Information Leaflet Summarised (S-PILs) is a software solution that
combines multiple medications into a short, relevant, electronic
interface. Simply put S-PILs provides an executive summary of the leaflets
provided with medications. S-PILs also simplifies this summary into
everyday language that can be personalised to the person's needs. S-PILs
can be used on devices such as smartphones, tablets, PCs and laptops.
Questions:
1. Do you think S-PILs would be of benefit? YES, NO
2. What is the likelihood of you using this technology if it was available
tomorrow? LIKELY, UNLIKELY
3. Would you be willing to pay for technology such as S-PILs if you had to
take medication? YES, NO
4. Are you aware of any other similar technology? If yes please list.
Regards
Marie Travers
