The growing number of elderly people combined with financial cuts in the health care sector lead to an increased demand for computer supported medical services. New standards like HTML5 allow the creation of hypervideo training applications that run on a variety of end user devices. In this paper, we evaluate an HTML5 player running an e-health hypervideo for the support of pelvic floor exercises. In an experimental test setting we compared the hypervideo to a primarily linear version regarding usability and utilization for selfcontrolled training. Our results show the hypervideo version leads to slightly more usability problems but facilitated a more active and individual training.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
