Human factors and ergonomics in the emergency department

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 2002
Although health care rapidly adopts technologic advances from other fields, it has been slow to incorporate well-established principles from human factors engineering into the health care workplace. This article demonstrates some of those principles by analyzing an all too routine clinical event from a human factors point of view.
