Gamified Health Questionnaire

Project Overview

This project involved the design and development of a gamified web-based health questionnaire.

Traditional health questionnaires can feel repetitive or unengaging, which may affect completion rates and the reliability of the collected information. The purpose of this project was to explore how gamification and digital tools could create a more engaging data collection experience.

My Contribution

I contributed to the development of the questionnaire and created the supporting data workflow.

A Python data pipeline was developed to ingest, validate and clean user responses. The collected information was stored in a structured SQL Server database designed to maintain data integrity and support efficient data access.

I also automated the calculation of System Usability Scale scores, allowing usability feedback to be transformed into a standardised quantitative metric.

Main Challenges

Healthcare data requires particular attention to quality, privacy, accessibility and clear data structures.

One of the main challenges was ensuring that responses could be consistently processed while maintaining an experience that was accessible and easy for users to understand.

Outcome

The project allowed me to combine my Biomedical Engineering background with programming, database design and data analysis.

It strengthened my interest in using data and technology to improve healthcare processes and user experiences.
