背景：支持照顾者的重要性在老年人的家庭护理中得到认可，促进他们寻求帮助的过程是满足这种需求的一种方式。使用电子医疗（eHealth）是一种潜在的有前途的解决方案，可以促进护理人员寻求帮助的过程。目的：本研究的目的是与社区组织、卫生和社会服务专业人员和护理人员合作，开发一种电子卫生工具，促进老年人需求的早期识别和现有资源的最佳利用。方法：为了设计该工具，于2017年5月至2018年5月在魁北克（11个地区）进行了8次共同设计会议（CoDs）并成立了3个咨询委员会。使用了各种方法，包括分类方法、人物角色的使用、电子健康工具分析、头脑风暴、草图、原型设计和预测试。结果：共招募74名共同设计人员（女性64名，男性10名）参加CoDs或咨询委员会。这个数字用于识别工具必须响应的需求，用于识别其需求（功能和内容），以及用于信息体系结构的开发。在整个研究过程中，对CoD的计划进行了调整，特别是因为某些步骤需要比预期更多的会议。其中，对于功能的识别也是如此。结论：本研究为功能依赖老年人的护理人员开发了一个电子健康工具，帮助他们确定自己的需求和满足这些需求的可用资源。国际注册报告标识符（irrid）： rr2-10.2196/11634。
BACKGROUND: The importance of supporting caregivers is recognized in home care for older persons, and facilitating their help-seeking process is a way to meet that need. The use of electronic health (eHealth) is a potentially promising solution to facilitate caregivers' help-seeking process.OBJECTIVE: The aim of this research was to develop, in partnership with community organizations, health and social service professionals and caregivers, an eHealth tool promoting the earlier identification of needs of older persons and an optimal use of available resources.METHODS: To design the tool, 8 co-design sessions (CoDs) were conducted and 3 advisory committees were created (in 11 regions) in Quebec between May 2017 and May 2018. A variety of methods were used, including the sorting method, the use of personas, eHealth tool analysis, brainstorming, sketching, prototyping, and pretesting.RESULTS: A total of 74 co-designers (women n=64 and men n=10) were recruited to participate in the CoDs or the advisory committees. This number allowed for the identification of needs to which the tool must respond and for the identification of its requirements (functionalities and content), as well as for the development of the information architecture. Throughout the study, adjustments were made to the planning of CoD, notably because certain steps required more sessions than expected. Among others, this was true for the identification of functionalities.CONCLUSIONS: This study led to the development of an eHealth tool for caregivers of functionally dependent older persons to help them identify their needs and the resources available to meet them.INTERNATIONAL REGISTERED REPORT IDENTIFIER (IRRID): RR2-10.2196/11634.
