This article provides an overview of human factors, ergonomics, human-computer interaction, and usability concepts as they relate to critical care settings. The use of these concepts can improve patient safety and the productivity of nurses, especially as they relate to the use of information systems. A framework for human-computer interaction is presented. Examples illustrate how the suite of human factors concepts is used to create intuitive, effective data presentations for use in critical care including an intensive care unit (ICU) summary display, an alternative graphic display, and modeling information sources of decision making in a neonatal ICU. The importance of integrating these concepts into advanced practice nurses' environments is made apparent.
本文概述了与重症监护环境相关的人为因素、人机工程学、人机交互和可用性概念。这些概念的应用可以提高患者安全以及护士的工作效率，尤其是在与信息系统的使用相关方面。文中提出了一个人机交互框架。通过实例说明了如何运用一系列人为因素概念来创建直观、有效的数据展示，用于重症监护，包括重症监护病房（ICU）总结显示、替代图形显示以及新生儿ICU决策信息源建模。将这些概念整合到高级实践护士工作环境中的重要性也得以彰显。
