Medical Instrumentation: Accessibility and Usability Considerations

This forward-looking resource focuses on how usability and accessibility pose problems for designers and users, and how to overcome these limitations. Divided into five broad sections, it begins by addressing the nature and extent of the problem by identifying access barriers, human factors, and policy issues focused on the existing infrastructure. The subsequent sections explore tools for usability and accessibility analysis, considerations for design guidelines, and emerging trends and future technologies. The final section presents the results of the recent Workshop on Accessible Interfaces for Medical Instrumentation that outlines key challenges, knowledge gaps, and recommendations.
