Abstract

Background: The history or family record is a central element of primary health care, available to identify potential health risks and personalization of patient care. This study sought to evaluate the usability of the electronic family file (EFF) that forms part of the health information system and archetype of the continuous program of medical information research (PROMEINFO). As a pioneer in the application of interoperability in Ecuador and other guidelines of eHealth of the World Health Organization, it seeks to optimize and rationalize resources in national health systems, especially at the level of family and community medicine. Materials and Methods: Quantitative, observational, descriptive, transversal research. The population comprised of 26 inmates and 3 tutors of the medical career of the University of Guayaquil assigned in the satellite health centers of the Hospital of Infectology named Dr. José Rodríguez Maridueña, who attended the community rotation during 2018. For data collection, it was used the computer system usability questionnaire (CSUQ), which consists of 19 items and uses the Likert scale for its measurement. Results: The utility of the system was 4,5/5, the quality of the interface 4,7/5 the functionality 4,7/ 5, the experience 4,6 / 5, the overall satisfaction 4,9/5 and average global usability of the system 4,4/5. Conclusions: The EFF of PROMEINFO had a high level of usability in the population studied, and its production represents an important advance in the quality of care that is granted at the first level of care.
