UX and usability for medical software & apps according to IEC 62366-1
In this practice-oriented training course, participants learn how to implement user experience (UX) and usability for medical software.
It starts with user research to understand who the users of the software are and in which environment the software is used. If the user has to pick up the cell phone again and again, even though this is only necessary at the end, then the context has not been properly understood. This is possible with systematic UX and usability methods.
Usage requirements are defined and usage errors for medical devices are transferred to risk management for evaluation via the interface.
This is followed by the implementation of a design solution, including the risk control measures. As human behavior is not easily predictable, the design solutions are then evaluated. Although this can also be done by experts, tests with users, known as usability tests, are the decisive factor.
Medical software and apps must comply with IEC 62366-1 in Europe. In the USA, there is an FDA guidance document entitled “Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices”. Usability tests are planned at the end of development. The corresponding telemetry data of the software can be used for market observation.
These activities require a good understanding of UX and usability engineering, which is taught in this in-house seminar.
