Library of Human Factors Resources for Digital Health Technologies

 

 

 

The Library of Human Factors Resources for Digital Health Technologies (DHTs) compiles external documents, including regulatory guidance and industry standards, focused on human-centered design, human factors, and usability relevant to sensor-based DHTs.

How to use the library:

  1. Use the Search by Activity tab to filter the library by selecting the Usability Validation Activity:
    • Human factors overview: Summaries and definitions.
    • Use specification: Topics such as user groups, use environments, and user interface.
    • Use-related risk assessment: Topics such as user tasks, use-errors, use-related hazards, and risk mitigation.
    • Design considerations: Topics related to product design.
    • Formative evaluation: Topics related to usability evaluation of a prototype product.
    • Summative evaluation: Topics related to usability evaluation of a final-version or marketed product.
  2. Find the Topic column. Narrow your search by clicking the down arrow in the header, selecting filter by this field, then select an option to toggle on the topics that interest you.
