背景和目的：我们评估了患者接受电子问卷收集乳腺癌的危险因素的数据在mammography setting.Methods：我们开发了一个电子问卷在平板电脑上，将预先填写的答案和跳过模式。使用随机对照研究设计，我们在一家乳房X线摄影诊所对调查进行了测试，该诊所在筛查乳房X线摄影时向每位妇女发放了一份纸质风险因素问卷。我们将160名妇女随机分为电子调查组（实验组，n = 86）和纸质调查组（对照组，n = 74）。我们评估了患者的接受程度和数据的完整性。结果：总体而言，70.4%的实验组妇女认为调查是非常容易使用的，相比之下，55.6%的妇女在控制组。与纸质问卷相比，实验组90%的女性更喜欢使用平板电脑。对片剂的偏好不因年龄而异;然而，≥ 60岁的女性并不像< 60岁的女性那样容易使用片剂。与纸质问卷相比，平板电脑上缺失数据的比例显著降低（4.6% vs. 6.2%，P = 0.04）。结论：电子问卷在乳腺X射线摄影设置中使用是可行的，可以提高数据质量，并且无论年龄大小，女性都首选电子问卷。(c)2006年爱思唯尔公司All rights reserved.
Background and Objective: We evaluated patient acceptance of an electronic questionnaire to collect breast cancer risk-factor data in a mammography setting.Methods: We developed an electronic questionnaire on a tablet computer incorporating prefilled answers and skip patterns. Using a randomized controlled study design, we tested the survey in a mammography clinic that administers a paper risk-factor questionnaire to every woman at her screening mammogram. We randomized 160 women to use the electronic survey (experimental group, n = 86) or paper survey (control group, n = 74). We evaluated patient acceptance and data completeness.Results: Overall, 70.4% of the experimental group women thought the survey was very easy to use, compared to 55.6% of women in the control group. Ninety percent of experimental group women preferred using the tablet, compared to the paper questionnaire. Preference for the tablet did not differ by age; however, women >= 60 years did not find the tablet as easy to use as did women < 60 years. The proportion of missing data was significantly lower on the tablet compared to the paper questionnaire (4.6% vs. 6.2%, P = .04).Conclusion: Electronic questionnaires are feasible to use in a mammography setting, can improve data quality, and are preferred by women regardless of age.
