背景：PROSPERO是一个关于卫生和社会保健系统性综述方案的国际前瞻性登记系统，于2011年2月启动。经过一年的运行，我们描述了访问和使用，探索用户体验，并确定未来改进的领域。方法：我们整理了管理数据和网站统计数据，并进行了用户体验的在线调查。结果：截至2012年2月21日，PROSPERO上共有1，076名注册用户和359条注册记录。数据库使用统计数字表明，国际上对PROSPERO的兴趣很大，全世界全天候都有很高的访问率。根据PROSPERO用户的232份回复（回复率为22%），几乎所有回复者都认为加入和导航很容易或非常容易（99%）;周转时间好或极好（96%）;提供的辅助材料有帮助或非常有帮助（80%）。80%的人认为注册字段与他们的审查相关; 99%的人认为他们在PROSPERO注册的总体体验为良好或优秀。大多数受访者（81%）在填写登记表之前有书面协议，19%没有。大多数，136（79%），表示他们完成了注册表在60分钟或更少的那些谁表达了意见，167（87%）认为所需的时间是大约right.Conclusions：第一年的PROSPERO已表明，注册系统评价协议是可行的，而不是过于繁重的那些注册他们的审查。评价表明，总体而言，调查答卷人感到满意，该系统允许以直接和可接受的方式登记协议细节。调查结果促使做出了一些改变，以改善用户体验，并确定了一些供未来考虑的问题。
Background: PROSPERO, an international prospective register of systematic review protocols in health and social care, was launched in February 2011. After one year of operation we describe access and use, explore user experience and identify areas for future improvement.Methods: We collated administrative data and web statistics and conducted an online survey of users' experiences.Results: On 21 February 2012, there were 1,076 registered users and 359 registration records published on PROSPERO. The database usage statistics demonstrate the international interest in PROSPERO with high access around the clock and around the world. Based on 232 responses from PROSPERO users (response rate 22%), almost all respondents found joining and navigation was easy or very easy (99%); turn round time was good or excellent (96%); and supporting materials provided were helpful or very helpful (80%). The registration fields were found by 80% to be relevant to their review; 99% rated their overall experience of registering with PROSPERO as good or excellent. Most respondents (81%) had a written protocol before completing the registration form and 19% did not. The majority, 136 (79%), indicated they completed the registration form in 60 minutes or less. Of those who expressed an opinion, 167 (87%) considered the time taken to be about right.Conclusions: The first year of PROSPERO has shown that registration of systematic review protocols is feasible and not overly burdensome for those registering their reviews. The evaluation has demonstrated that, on the whole, survey respondents are satisfied and the system allows registration of protocol details in a straightforward and acceptable way. The findings have prompted some changes to improve user experience and identified some issues for future consideration.
