Design for Health: Applications of Human Factors delves into
critical and emergent issues in healthcare and patient safety and
how the field of human factors and ergonomics play a role in this
domain. The book uses the Design for X (DfX) methodology to discuss
a wide range of contexts, technologies, and population dependent
criteria (X's) that must be considered in the design of a safe and
usable healthcare ecosystem. Each chapter discusses a specific
topic (e.g., mHealth, medical devices, emergency response, global
health, etc.), reviews the concept, and presents a case study that
demonstrates how human factors techniques and principles are
utilized for the design, evaluation or improvements to specific
tools, devices, and technologies (Section 1), healthcare systems
and environments (Section 2), and applications to special
populations (Section 3). The book represents an essential resource
for researchers in academia as well as practitioners in medical
device industries, consumer IT, and hospital settings. It covers a
range of topics from medication reconciliation to self-care to the
artificial heart.
