Background
Mobile-linked point-of-care diagnostics forms an integral part of diagnostic health services for
efficient communication between patients and healthcare professionals despite geographical
location and time of diagnosis. The efficiency of this technology lies in the user experience
which means that the interaction of the user with the implemented technology needs to be
simple, convenient, and consistent. Having a well-structured user experience of these
devices in community-based healthcare will aid in sustainable implementation. Herein, we
propose to conduct a literature search to systematically map out evidence based on mobilelinked
POC diagnostics user experience at a community level in resource-limited settings.
Methodology
The proposed scoping review will be guided by the advanced Arksey and O’Malley methodological
framework and further advanced by Levac et al. A comprehensive search will be
conducted to find relevant published literature from the following electronic databases: Scopus,
Web of Science, EBSCOhost (Medline, CINAHL, Africa-wide, Academic Search Complete).
Grey literature will also be searched, including reports from government and
international organizations such as World Health Organization (WHO), Foundation for Innovative
New Diagnostics (FIND), and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Two independent
reviewers will screen the relevant studies and the degree of the agreement will be
determined by calculating Cohen’s kappa statistic. The quality of eligible data will also be appraised using the mixed method appraisal tool version 2018.
Discussion
We anticipate that the planned scoping review will present useful evidence to inform stakeholders
on the integration of mobile-linked diagnostic devices in community-based healthcare
which will guide further research on the subject. |
