An augmented reality (AR) mobile smartphone application was developed for clinicians to improve their knowledge about the contents and organisation of a standardised paediatric code cart, an important tool in safe, effective paediatric resuscitations. This study used focus groups and interviews with 22 clinicians to identify work system barriers and facilitators to use of the application. We identified twelve dimensions of barriers and facilitators: convenience, device ownership, device size and type, gamification, interface design, movement/physical space, perception of others, spatial presence, technological experience, technological glitches, workload, and the perception and attitude towards code cart and resuscitation. These dimensions can guide improvement efforts, e.g. redesigning the interface, providing non-AR modes, improving the tutorial. We propose nine principles to guide the design of other digital health technologies incorporating AR. In particular, the workload demands created by using AR must be considered and accounted for in the design and implementation of such technologies. : Augmented reality (AR) may prepare workers for situations that do not occur frequently. This study investigates barriers and facilitators to using an AR mobile smartphone application developed to improve clinician knowledge about code carts, leading to improvements to the application and principles to guide the design of other AR-based technologies.
为临床医生开发了一款增强现实（AR）移动智能手机应用程序，以提高他们对标准化儿科急救推车内容和组织的了解，这是安全、有效地进行儿科复苏的重要工具。本研究通过焦点小组和对22名临床医生的访谈，确定了使用该应用程序的工作系统障碍和促进因素。我们确定了障碍和促进因素的十二个维度：便利性、设备所有权、设备尺寸和类型、游戏化、界面设计、移动/物理空间、他人看法、空间临场感、技术经验、技术故障、工作量以及对急救推车和复苏的认知与态度。这些维度可以指导改进工作，例如重新设计界面、提供非AR模式、改进教程。我们提出了九条原则来指导包含AR的其他数字健康技术的设计。特别是，在设计和实施此类技术时，必须考虑并兼顾使用AR所产生的工作量需求。增强现实（AR）可以让工作人员为不常发生的情况做好准备。本研究调查了使用一款为提高临床医生对急救推车的了解而开发的AR移动智能手机应用程序的障碍和促进因素，从而对该应用程序进行改进，并提出指导其他基于AR的技术设计的原则。
