Dr Leslie Robinson - #EngageWell 7 November
The WoMMeN project formed an interdisciplinary team in 2013 to explore using social media for breast cancer screening information and research. Through user-centered design and an online Facebook group, they collected feedback from 89 women on topics and formats. This informed the creation of the WoMMeN hub website and linked social media accounts. The hub launched in 2016 and provided peer support and health professional communication. Challenges included integrating patient and practitioner social media use. Ongoing work includes using digital marketing to reach underserved screening populations and further research.

Editor's Notes
- #6 The road map of the Center for eHealth Research and Disease Management (CeHRes) described by van Gemert-Pijnen et al [11] provides arguably the most comprehensive framework for applying UCD to eHealth product design. The CeHRes road map promotes (1) gaining an understanding of the lives of end users and other stakeholders (contextual inquiry), (2) seeking a deeper understanding of the values of key stakeholders (value specification), (3) involving users in the development of a product (design), (4) developing an operational plan for the implementation of the technology (operationalization), and (5) evaluating the product (summative evaluation).
- #8 The Grytics analysis showed that between March 2015 and September 2015 (approx 6 months) we had a very engaged community of women talking about breast screening. As well as providing us with information to inform the final hub this gave us confidence that the idea of social networking for breast screening was a good idea
- #9 So the user design group was very engaged. Grytics showed us they were engaged all days and all hours of the day. This supports our use of social media as a research tool for gathering data from people who can’t attend face-to-face.
- #10 Quantitative data is not relevant for informing the hub, only to show that the research process was working We had to analyse the 1124 posts to identify what women talked about and therefore what should be on the hub. Two researchers independently identified the themes and then arrived at a consensus of 52 themes or topics. A framework analysis also enabled us to split the topics into ‘cases’ to identify who talked about the themes, were they important to all or just certain groups. This would help us to determine whether the final hub should have separate areas for different groups
- #11 In terms of features: Users did support the need to talk to other women on line Clients and practitioners felt there should be a ‘practitioner’ voice present to provide balance However, all were keen that experiences (good and bad) should be acknowledged. In terms of information, of the 52 themes, these were the ones most talked about and the groups. This supports the need for a separate practitioner space on the WoMMeN hub.
- #12 So here is the final hub and address. Let me highlight a number of features to demonstrate how the research has informed the hub
- #13 Features for discussion feature strongly. There is an open hub for practitioners and clients A separate hub just for practitioners There are also links and feeds to and from our WoMMeN Twitter and Facebook accounts for women who don’t want to register on a the hub forum
- #15 There are patient experience blogs
- #16 There is an information link to the topics identified in the themes. We have not created new information, except where it did not exist, but we have curated the best of what is already on the internet, e.g the BSP links.
