Brief Summary: The DietCoach study aims to investigate the requirements of a digital dietary counseling platform and evaluate the dietitian acceptance and usability of the DietCoach platform which was developed based on the collected requirements Additionally the study examines how different levels of patient food purchase data availability affect these factors The DietCoach platform automatically tracks historic and up-to-date patient food purchase data on loyalty cards and provides nutritional analysis assisting dietitians in the dietary counseling process The key research questions RQ are

1 What are the requirements of a digital dietary counseling system based on food purchase data
2 What is acceptance and usability of the DietCoach platform evaluated by dietitians
3 How does the availability of patient food purchase data influence the acceptance and perceived usability of the DietCoach platform by dietitians

Dietitians from several cantonal hospitals in the German-speaking area of Switzerland are invited to participate in the study To answer RQ1 we conduct a workshop and a survey with dietitians to derive key requirements on dietary counseling systems To answer RQ2 and RQ3 we use a cross-sectional mixed-methods between-subjects study design

Researchers will evaluate and compare the acceptance and usability of DietCoach in 3 different conditions 3 patients that had different ie high medium and low food purchase data availability Each participant is assigned to the data of one patient Participants are required to

1 use the DietCoach platform to provide at least one dietary recommendation to patient food purchase data in two separate sessions
2 provide quantitative and qualitative feedback about the acceptance and usability of the DietCoach platform
Detailed Description: The DietCoach study aims to investigate the requirements of a digital dietary counseling platform and evaluate the dietitian acceptance and usability of the DietCoach platform which was developed based on the collected requirements Additionally the study examines how different levels of patient food purchase data availability affect these factors The DietCoach platform automatically tracks historic and up-to-date patient food purchases on loyalty cards and provides nutritional analysis

Dietitians from several cantonal hospitals in the German-speaking area of Switzerland are invited to participate To collect the key requirements of a digital dietary counseling platform based on food purchase data we conduct a workshop and a survey using guiding questions designed based on our research over the last years To understand the acceptance and usability of DietCoach and how food purchase data availability influences these factors we use a cross-sectional mixed-methods between-subjects study design Each participant is assigned to the data of one patient Participants need to

1 use the DietCoach platform to provide at least one dietary recommendation to patient food purchase data in two separate sessions
2 provide quantitative and qualitative feedback about the acceptance and usability of the DietCoach platform

The DietCoach usability study includes three conditions data from three patients defined by High Medium and Low levels of patient food purchase data availability Data availability is determined by the number of basketsitems from the major Swiss retail chain per person in a patient household Participants are randomly assigned to the data of one patient

In both the initial and follow-up sessions participants need to provide at least one dietary recommendation based on the patients health status and food purchase data over 8 weeks The food purchase data in the follow-up session covers the 8 weeks immediately following those considered in the initial session After completing the assigned tasks on the platform participants are asked to complete a survey assessing their acceptance of and the usability of the DietCoach platform
