Evaluation of Information Displays A Paper & Pencil, Computer, Simulator, and ICU Based Study
Evaluation of Information Displays A Paper & Pencil, Computer, Simulator, and ICU Based Study
Our objective is to develop intuitive, meaningful and ergonomically efficient informative displays specific to the user's domain. Specifically we aim to enhance and refine the display prototype of ABG information to include gas-exchange, acid-base balance, lung mechanics, ventilation, oxygenation, and metabolism information.
To create an intuitive and meaningful visualization of Arterial Blood Gas (ABG) variables, it is necessary to address usability, ergonomics, domain specific, and expertise specific issues and concerns. Our objective is to develop intuitive, meaningful and ergonomically efficient informative displays specific to the user's domain. Specifically we aim to enhance and refine the display prototype of ABG information to include gas-exchange, acid-base balance, lung mechanics, ventilation, oxygenation, and metabolism information.
Inclusion Criteria: ICU nurses Exclusion Criteria: All participants were screened and excluded from participation if they had previously participated in any of graphical display design and feedback sessions when developing the ICU display.
