مستخلص: Background: Chronic kidney disease is becoming a major public health problem around the world. Transplantation is the preferred treatment option for end-stage renal disease. Waiting time to receive a transplant kidney for the most patients can be 3-5 years. These patients can manage difficulties arising during the transplantation process. They need educational, practical, and psychosocial support. Objective: This study aimed to design and evaluate a prototype of a mobile application interface for a kidney transplant in Waiting List Candidates. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Montaserieh Hospital affiliated with Mashhad University of Medical Sciences in 2022. The current study was conducted in three following phases 1. Developing the Minimum Data Set (MDS) for kidney transplant patients, 2. Designing a prototype of a mobile user interface using Balsamiq software based on point of view of transplant and medical informatics specialists, and 3. Evaluating the interface with standardized questionnaire of Mobile App Rating Scale (MARS) and System Usability Scale (SUS). Results: The proposed MDS comprised 11 categories and 175 data elements. The designed prototype encompassed three user interfaces as follows: patients, nurses, and physicians. The results of evaluating the quality and usability of the designed interface were acceptable. The average MARS and SUS scores respectively were 4 and 72.68. Conclusion: Designing a monitoring system based on information technology as well as the effective use of mobile health services is an effective step in managing the condition of treatment and transplantation of kidney transplant patients.
