From Many to One: Designing a Unified Flowsheet in the EMR to Replace Multiple Disparate Devices.

This study represents a post-implementation qualitative inquiry for a maturing flowsheet design that aims to replace multiple disparate devices used for data entry. The flowsheet has already experienced multiple iterative development cycles based on formal feedback from formative and summative usability studies. This next phase focused on a semi-structured qualitative interview to provide new feedback that will be used to further refine the product. Results of the 9-item interview were both actionable and provocative, revealing multiple avenues of improvement and a new usability map that can inform future studies and design plans.
