SUMMARY:The Importance of Usability in Clinical Informatics
DESCRIPTION:The usability of health information technology and systems has 
 remained a major issue and there continue to be reports of clinical informa
 tion systems that have failed to take into account human factors. These fac
 tors need to be considered in making systems easy to use and effective for 
 health professionals as well as for patients and lay people. This presentat
 ion will discuss approaches to ensuring the usability of clinical informati
 on systems, and how this can be measured, assessed and improved. We will al
 so examine some of the issues with current health IT solutions and how less
 ons learned from the success of mobile and emergent applications can be app
 lied. Criteria for designing and evaluating the usability of clinical syste
 ms will be described, along with an effective, simple and practical approac
 h known as low-cost rapid usability testing, several usability inspection m
 ethods as well as clinical simulations. These methods can be applied throug
 hout the design and evaluation of a wide range of applications ranging from
  electronic health records to mobile apps and examples will be provided of 
 using the approach in both research and practice.
