Web site for Consumer Health Informatics

我们研究的主要目的是使日本的健康消费者可以获得消费者健康信息学（CHI）的信息。虽然日本健康消费者对循证医学的认知程度较低，但在网路上搜寻健康资讯的经验，发展了他们寻找正确医学证据的能力。我们向健康消费者推荐了13个网站（9个美国网站和4个日本网站），提出了老年人可用性的标准，并对这些网站的指标进行了分析。我们在我们的网站上公布了这些结果。

The primary objectives of our study were to make the information of consumer health informatics (CHI) available to Japanese health consumers. Although Japanese health consumers had less literacy for EBM, the experiences of searching health information on internet developed the ability of finding correct medical evidence. We recommended thirteen web sites (9 American sites and 4 Japanese sites) to the health consumers, proposed standards of usability for elderly people and made analysis of the indexes in these web sites. We published these results on our web site.
