Background: Prediction algorithms may improve the ability of telehealth solutions to assess the risk of future exacerbations in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Learning from patients' and clinicians' evaluations and experiences about the use of such algorithms is essential to evaluate its potential and examine factors that could potentially influence the implementation and sustained use.
Objective: To investigate the patients' and clinicians' perceptions and satisfaction with an algorithm for predicting exacerbations in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Healthy lifestyle behaviors are essential in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, and meal registration is therefore important. Manual meal registration is cumbersome and could be automated using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM). If such an algorithm is based on patient-reported meals, potential errors might be induced.

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.

This study aims to discover problems and user experiences in a new released version of Sleepiz web application using heuristic evaluation and eye-tracking retrospective think-aloud performed by domain experts and end users. The web application is designed to support healthcare professionals in decision-making and monitoring of elderly people diagnosed with chronic respiratory diseases. Identification of usability problems and user experiences might contribute to improve the platform and will be reported to the developers.
