Workshop Setting:
Unlike last year’s mini
conference approach, the emphasis will be on
discussion and exchange of ideas. We have hopes that this workshop will
stimulate the production of a joint publication
(e.g. a volume of Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science) on the appropriate
selection of evaluation methods for IT in
healthcare and their effective application.
This workshop will bring together experts from diverse areas to work on common
scenarios, with the goal of facilitating
continuing discussions and future collaboration.
General Theme:
Medicine and Healthcare are currently subject to exceedingly rapid technological
change, especially information technology (IT) is continually penetrating into
and driving this healthcare. A variety of new healthcare concepts for supporting
and assisting users in technology-enhanced environments emerged in the last
decade. While smart healthcare systems can help to minimize hospital stays and
in doing so enable patients an independent life in a domestic environment, the
complexity of such systems raises fundamental questions of behavior,
communication and technology acceptance.
Specific focus:
Following the 1st Workshop HCI4MED at HCI 2008 in
Liverpool, in 2009, we focus on one extremely important topic: Evaluation of
IT in Healthcare. Following a case-based approach, we will discuss and review
diverse methods of evaluation from various perspectives. Researchers from
different disciplines will work on the interrelation of medical, environmental,
technical, communicative, psychological and social factors and their
consequences for the design, use and acceptance of smart IT in healthcare
systems.
The participants of this workshop will gain insight into whether and to what
extent, different healthcare applications have the potential to contribute
towards enhancing the performance on three levels: patients/caregivers;
clinicians and hospital managers. Moreover, it is of vital importance that
evaluation results are integrated into engineering at a systemic level in order
to impact future IT: as well as understanding the issues that stakeholders can
and do encounter, we need to ensure that effective solutions are engineered. It
is particularly important for Medical Information Systems to be designed with
the appropriate awareness of the
diversity of the end users.
