Information visualization (InfoViz) tools offer a potential solution to pain communication challenges. Incongruencies in communication styles between patients with limited English proficiency (LEP), interpreters, and providers contribute to significant disparities in pain care and outcomes. This study’s purpose is to evaluate and refine a culturally appropriate InfoViz pain quality assessment tool for LEP Hmong patients. We conducted a three-part iterative user-centered study with LEP Hmong, bilingual Hmong, and Hmong interpreters with (1) participatory design sessions to evaluate and refine pain infographics for inclusion on the tool, (2) card-sorting to organize the infographics to match the mental models of LEP patients, and (3) a tool assessment to identify which tool accurately represented LEP patients’ mental models and was preferred in clinical settings. Fifty-five participants provided three common themes for pain infographics refinement: culturally-relevant colors, infographics resembling human anatomy, and action-specific squiggle lines. The card-sorting sessions revealed three organizational themes: sensation (n= 15; 71.4%), localization (n= 6; 28.6%), and severity of pain quality (n= 5; 24.3%). Most participants selected the localization as the most accurate tool and preferred it in clinical settings. Using a multi-step, user-centered approach resulted in a culturally appropriate pain InfoViz tool for LEP Hmong patients.
