Paper abstract bibtex Introduction. HIV-MEDIC online is a randomized controlled trial available in French and English on a secure Web site, which aims to assess the efficacy of virtual support interventions in the management of antiretroviral therapy to PLHIV. Objective. The objectives of this communication are: 1) to present HIV-MEDIC online, 2) to show the experience of the site's first users, and 3) to reveal the challenges encountered in a study done entirely through the Web. Method. Usability tests to potential users, i.e., to PLHIV on antiretroviral therapy, were a prerequisite to launching the study online. Observation and structured interviews were undertaken to determine the usability (ease of use, efficiency, errors, and user satisfaction) of the user interface and the content of the entire process of the randomized controlled trial online. Results. Usability tests among the users allowed the improvement of the virtual research process. HIV-MEDIC online was developed thanks to the pooling of diversified expertise: a clinical team, community workers, researchers, web design, multimedia team, and computer programmers. Evaluation of an intervention through a randomized controlled trial online presents particular challenges especially in terms of recruitment, ethics, data collection, long-term follow-up, and data security. Conclusion. Accessibility to Web-based interventions provides the possibility for capability and empowerment. From their home or any other place chosen by the individuals accessing the Internet, PLHIV can benefit from this new intervention modality and from the results of this research.
