Journal Article 2021 01 26 <strong>Aim:</strong> This study aimed to assess the usability of HISs from users' viewpoints based on ISO 9241-10 standard.<br /> <strong>Methods:</strong> This study was a descriptive and cross-sectional study that was conducted in 2019. It was filled out by 227 end-users, including 165 clinical and 59 administrative staff of Imam Khomeini, Mostafa Khomeini, and Taleghani hospitals selected randomly. Data were collected using the standard Iso-Metric 9241-10 questionnaire. The content validity and reliability of the questionnaire were assessed by experts' opinions and test-retest method, respectively. Finally, the findings were analyzed using descriptive statistics (mean value, standard deviation, and frequency) through SPSS-23 software packages.<br /> <strong>Results:</strong> Based on the results, 56% of HISs users in the surveyed hospitals were somewhat satisfied, with the total average of all scores being equal to 2.8 from 5. The results suggested that the highest <br /> scores were found for the criterion of "controllability," while the <br /> lowest scores were associated with "suitability for individualizations" and "self-descriptiveness," respectively.<br /> <strong>Conclusion: </strong>The HISs users' satisfaction was considered relatively desirable in terms of functionalities factors. Therefore, user-friendliness, flexibility, and web-based capabilities are suggested as the most important requirements that must be taken into account for enhancing usability and adoption of HISs. https://ahit.ssu.ac.ir/article_139_6f2a2bcea77ebee1580c8267b19d5af1.pdf
