This document summarizes research on developing a Patient Empowerment Pod (3P) to collect health data from patients. The 3P aimed to easily collect measures like BMI, abdominal circumference, and screen for undiagnosed diabetes. An interdisciplinary team built a prototype pod and tested it in a GP clinic. The pod collected height, weight, and other data from 89 patients. Feedback found the pod useful for highlighting health issues like weight and exercise levels. All patients said they would use the pod again on return visits to help empower them on health issues.

- 6. Problem and aims of study The recording of population health type of data is not routinely done in general practice e.g. • 22% & 4% of records had BMI and abdominal circumference recorded • Prevalence of undiagnosed diabetes was 2.8% Aims • Test whether a purpose built Patient Empowerment Pod (3P ) is able to easily and non- intrusively collect a range of measureable data from patients in a GP clinic setting. • Explore patient experiences of a tailored health report card in empowering them on health issues. • Obtain information on the 3P experience, thus proposing further improvements

- 19. Key Themes Height weight monitor errors were regularly mentioned. Motivation to use the health pod was due to both curiosity and boredom in the clinic prior to their appointment Found health pod useful to highlight issues such as exercise, weight and alcohol consumption. No one reported discussion of results with their GP, health professional, family Two users reported a purchase of fitness trackers after using the health pod (FitBit, JawBone) One user was concerned about their alcohol use and found the reported card ‘a useful reminder to put on the fridge door’. All reported that using the pod was useful as summed up by this quote: ‘A useful trigger and reminder about health issues that you have a vague sense of needing to change but seeing the report card was salutary.” All would use the pod on a return visit

He has a passion for leadership, health services design, quality improvement and patient centred care. Short summary: (120 characters) The 3P aims to enhance patient data collection via an automated data gathering system to improve quality of clinical data. Title: Development of a prototype Patient EmPowerment Pod (3P) for improved health care. Context and Aims GPs manage their local population health as well as their individual patients. Both rely on quality health and clinical data to optimise care. For example height, weight, risk of diabetes or heart disease, and lifestyle behaviours (smoking and alcohol consumption), are important for health assessment. Such data can be collected during patient consultations with a GP or health professional, however, it is not routine in many GP practices to collect and record such data. The aims of this study are to test the 3P, a self-assessment electronic waiting room kiosk, as a mechanism for improving data collection and generate a ‘report card’ to help empower patients to take action on health issues identified. Methods A number of focus groups and interactive workshops were held with health professionals, design students and end users to co-design a system to optimise patient and staff experience. Findings This project is currently in progress. We report on concept generation, the design process, construction, testing and refinement phases, and present the final design concept together with preliminary findings from the patient experience. In particular, we present the value of a multi-disciplinary research team utilising a co-design, co-develop and co-deploy approach. Innovative contribution to policy, practice and/or research To our knowledge, this is the first time in Australia such IT technology has been used to collect patient data in a GP setting. If successful, this could be a relatively easy, low cost method of enhancing personnel health records.
