  text: "Background Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) are information provided directly
    by patients that helps in improving patient diagnosis and treatment. Validated
    translations of PROs can be used to treat international patients. Electronic systems
    and especially mobile devices provide a great opportunity for their collection;
    however, these systems are normally study-oriented and therefore single language,
    not scalable, and not interoperable.\r\n\r\nObjectives This article reports the
    development of a multicenter, multilingual, and interoperable electronic PRO (ePRO)
    system and evaluates its user satisfaction in an international clinical study.\r\n\r\nMethods The
    ePRO named “MoPat2” was developed using Java 8 and jQuery Mobile 1.4.5. The system
    was evaluated in the context of the European dermatology project “European Network
    on Assessment of Severity and Burden of Pruritus”(PruNet), which aimed to unify
    the assessment of itch in routine dermatological care in Europe. Twenty-six clinicians
    and 468 patients from 8 European clinical centers were asked to complete a user
    satisfaction questionnaire regarding the use of MoPat2 with a tablet personal
    computer. The results were then analyzed and correlated with the age, gender,
    and language of the respondents.\r\n\r\nResults MoPat2 was enhanced with multilingual
    capabilities and is now able to conduct surveys in several languages, as well
    as store and display the results in the local language. The interviewed clinicians
    rated the system with an average score of 2.0 (“good”) in a 1 to 5 Likert scale.
    Note that 93.9% of the patients (439 of 468) reported having got on well using
    the system and 88.9% (416 of 456) would be willing to further use it. The age
    of the patients not willing to further use MoPat2 was, in average, considerably
    higher than the age of patients willing to use the system.\r\n\r\nConclusions This
    study represents the first use of an ePRO system for the collection of multilingual
    PROs in an international, multicenter setting. MoPat2 has been evaluated by both
    clinicians and patients in the context of a European dermatological study, resulting
    in a high user satisfaction. The system will be further developed to include new
    features such as patient follow-ups outside of the clinical setting."
