In order to achieve the objectives of the study, the researchers adapted IsoMetrics questionnaire, a usability inventory that provides a user-oriented summative approach to software evaluation on the bases of ISO 9241 (Part 10).

Another questionnaire was designed based on previous studies and the theoretical framework.

Both questionnaires were distributed to a sample of (380) patients in the two hospitals.

Data was analyzed using the statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version (20).
