User Requirements and Conceptual Design for an Electronic Data Platform for Interhospital Transfer Between Acute Care Hospitals: User-Centered Design Study

Notable levels of missing information and inefficient access to clinical data were reported by end users caring for IHT patients at the time of transfer. Conducting user research to understand the current process of IHT, involving users in conceptual design and information architecture, and generating prototypes for feedback from users can aid in designing a solution that meets user needs. The results of these early UCD activities will be used to develop and implement a data platform to support clinicians during IHT.
