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.
