Existing questionnaires provide a foundation for research on e-health usability. However, future research is needed to broaden the coverage of the usability attributes and psychometric properties of the available questionnaires.

Clinical support systems targeting bedside nurses have positive effects on outcomes and hold promise for improving care quality; however, this research is lagging behind studies of CDS targeting medical decision-making in both volume and level of evidence.

The results suggest that there are differences between the ineffective airway clearance indicators as accuracy measures.

The objective of the study was to evaluate the available productions in literature about scales to measure the overload of caregivers of patients with stroke. It was carried out a bibliographical revision in three databases: LILACS, CINAHL and SCOPUS. In 23 works, 24 different scales were identified, and the most cited were: the Caregiver Strain Index, the Caregiver Burden Scale, the Caregiver Reaction Assessment, the Sense of Competence Questionnaire, the Relatives Stress Scale and the Zarit Burden Interview. The use of scales to measure the overload is an important tool to evaluate the context in which the caregiver is inserted, but is more trustworthy to use more than one measure instrument than use only one. Therefore, the validation of scales becomes important for this population.
