Functional testing was carried out by the Editorial Team and Knowledge Manager as content was added. The toolkit (app and web version) was subject to staff and citizen user testing (a combination of goal and experience questions) for several weeks in the run up to the toolkit being published.  Staff Volunteers were multidisciplinary and included doctors, nurses, AHPs and laboratory staff. Citizen volunteers were pre and post transplant patients and some relatives and carers. Feedback was gathered using Webropol and any suggested improvements were discussed within the Editorial Team.
