This paper presents a safety reporting smartphone application which is expected to reduce the occurrence of postoperative adverse events after total hip arthroplasty (THA). A user-centered design approach was utilized to facilitate optimal user experience. Two main implemented functionalities capture patient pain levels and well-being, the two dimensions of patient status that are intuitive and commonly checked. For these and other functionalities, mobile technology could enable timely safety reporting and collection of patient data out of a hospital setting. The HCI expert, and healthcare professionals from the Haukeland University Hospital in Bergen have assessed the design with respect to the interaction flow, information content, and self-reporting functionalities. They have found it to be practical, intuitive, sufficient and simple for users. Patient self-reporting could help recognizing safety issues and adverse events.
本文介绍了一款安全报告智能手机应用程序,预计该程序可减少全髋关节置换术(THA)后术后不良事件的发生。采用了以用户为中心的设计方法来促进最佳用户体验。两个主要实现的功能是获取患者的疼痛程度和健康状况,这是患者状态的两个直观且常被检查的维度。对于这些及其他功能,移动技术能够在医院环境之外实现及时的安全报告和患者数据收集。来自卑尔根豪克兰大学医院的人机交互专家和医疗保健专业人员已就交互流程、信息内容和自我报告功能对该设计进行了评估。他们发现该设计对用户来说实用、直观、充分且简单。患者自我报告有助于识别安全问题和不良事件。
