چکیده

OBJECTIVE to assess the usability of a digital learning technology prototype as a new method for minimally invasive monitoring of intracranial pressure. METHOD descriptive study using a quantitative approach on assessing the usability of a prototype based on Nielsen's ten heuristics. Four experts in the area of Human-Computer interaction participated in the study. RESULTS the evaluation delivered eight violated heuristics and 31 usability problems in the 32 screens of the prototype. CONCLUSION the suggestions of the evaluators were critical for developing an intuitive, user-friendly interface and will be included in the final version of the digital learning technology.
