技术设计是一项复杂的任务，当可用性成为设计的核心时，可接受性就会增强。评估可用性对于技术的购买者和开发者来说是一个挑战。我们通过文献综述和临床监护仪设计经验，开发了一个用于测试临床监护技术可用性的框架。该框架可以帮助设计师满足关键的国际可用性规范。该框架包括这些直接测试方法：出声思考，提问，共同发现，性能和心理生理测量。间接测试方法包括：问卷调查和访谈，观察和人种学研究，以及自我报告日志。检查，第三种可用性测试方法，也包括在内。这些方法的使用进行了说明，并给出了如何将它们用于开发一个创新的监测器的实际例子。该框架建立在一系列方法的基础上，以确保用户和新的临床监测技术之间的和谐，并已被选定为实用。
Technology design is a complex task, and acceptability is enhanced when usability is central to its design. Evaluating usability is a challenge for purchasers and developers of technology. We have developed a framework for testing the usability of clinical monitoring technology through literature review and experience designing clinical monitors. The framework can help designers meet key international usability norms. The framework includes these direct testing methods: thinking aloud, question asking, co-discovery, performance and psychophysiological measurement. Indirect testing methods include: questionnaires and interviews, observation and ethnographic studies, and self-reporting logs. Inspection, a third usability testing method, is also included. The use of these methods is described and practical examples of how they would be used in the development of an innovative monitor are given throughout. This framework is built on a range of methods to ensure harmony between users and new clinical monitoring technology, and have been selected to be practical to use.
