Using Medical Device Logs for Improving Medical Device Design

2013 IEEE International Conference on Healthcare Informatics, 2013
User interfaces that employ the same display and buttons may look the same but can work very differently depending on exactly how they are implemented. In healthcare, it is critical that interfaces that look the same are the same. Hospitals typically have many types of visually similar infusion pumps, but with different software versions and variation ...
