Brief Summary

This study evaluates the usability of a new tablet PC application to stimulate cognitive functions. Patients hospitalized in a geriatric ward (day or complete hospitalisation) but also their informal and professional caregivers will assess the usability of the application using a structured survey.

Conditions

Patient Satisfaction; Neurocognitive Disorders

Keywords

old people; elderly; minor neurocognitive disorder; major neurocognitive disorder; neurocognitive disorder; mild cogntitive impairment; MCI; alzheimer disease; app; usability; ergonomic; satisfaction

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Usability regarding the Cogilus app

  Average of the usability scores. Usability score is calculated using the responses to the validated System Usability Scale (SUS). SUS is composed of 10 questions. Each response is ranking from 0 to 5. The total score ranges between 0 and 100. It is calculted considering the sum of the result on each question multiplicated by 2. An average score equal or over 70/100 will be considered as satisfying.

  after 30 minutes of test of the app

Secondary Outcomes (3)

• Satisfaction regarding the Cogilus app

  after 30 minutes of test of the app

• Global ergonomics regarding the Cogilus app

  after 30 minutes of test of the app

• Ergonomics regarding the exercices proposed in the Cogilus app
