Usability Design in Medical Informatics: A Prospective Research Project.

ABSTRACT

This short paper aims to raise awareness of good usability design in medical computer sciences. We present a research plan about developing usability design guidelines for web application development in medical informatics. Following a nimble creation process we shall create a guideline tailored for software developers, that aims to improve communication between the developer and the medical professional. Results are therefore expected to impact the way applications are being developed within the medical sector.
