NordDesign 2020
The NordDesign conferences serve as a Nordic complement to the larger international conferences in design and product development, but we also wish to welcome participants from all other countries.
Knowledge Base Repository
In addition to research papers, the Design Society is developing several valuable resources for those interested in the study of design. These include a repository of PhD theses, a library of case studies and transcripts of design activities, and an archive of our newsletters.

Abstract:
The purpose of the paper is to share the learning from a usability test of a medical device. We discuss about inferences made from a usability test of a medical device with a touchscreen UI. A thematic analysis was done on a 200+ page report based on observation during the usability test with 3 different user groups performing various touchscreen-related tasks on a medical device. Based on this analysis, we derive a set of inferences for touchscreen interface design. We see a clear need to consider factors outside the touchscreen itself influencing Graphic User Interface design for medical devices.
