RESUMEN
Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) for the ongoing decision making required to support health behavior change for chronic disease management should incorporate behavioral science (e.g., a collaborative goal setting workflow) with more common CDSS components (i.e., an evidence-based knowledge base that processes patient data). Given known challenges with CDSS usability and adoption, engaging clinician end-users in designing new CDSS is vital. Therefore, we tested Nutri, a CDSS for collaborative diet goal setting, with 10 clinicians in a simulated primary care appointment with a patient actor. Simulation recordings, usability surveys, and debriefing interviews provided a multi-method view of clinicians' perceptions of Nutri's value and usability. 100% of participating clinicians achieved Nutri's main objective: selecting a high impact diet goal during a collaborative goal setting discussion with the patient; participants found Nutri usable, potentially timesaving, and increased their diet counseling self-efficacy. Insights will improve Nutri's usability and clinical workflow integration.
