The MINDSET 2.0 recommendation algorithms demonstrated 100% agreement between programmed and generated recommendations, confirming that the software executed the predefined decision rules as intended. Clinical feasibility of MINDSET 2.0 was evaluated separately through usability, acceptability, and implementation-related measures. Three participants needed help using MINDSET 2.0 (50%). Neurologists (\n                      <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f=\u202f3) rated MINDSET 2.0 as increasing the thoroughness of information collected from and improving communication with PWE.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In addition to generating an ESM action plan, MINDSET 2.0 may be feasible in assisting PWE and neurologists in decision-making regarding the most suitable MEWN ESM training programs and the most pressing NMDH. Given that no participants reported prior experience with MEW programs, these ratings likely reflect participants\u2019 familiarity with and initial impressions of the recommended interventions rather than direct evaluations of their value or effectiveness.
