Quiz on RKE517: Health Information System Analysis and Design

What is the main risk of having a poor interface for a robust and efficient internal data system in healthcare?

• It is a direct threat to patient well-being.

• It increases the speed of data processing.

• It can lead to miscommunication among healthcare providers.

• It is merely an inconvenience for users.

• It improves patient satisfaction.

Which real-world incident involved a glucose meter that led to dangerous patient outcomes due to a display issue?

• VA EHR Failure

• Medication Labeling Error

• Insulin Pump Malfunction

• Glucose Meter Incident

• Data Breach Incident

According to the material, what should HIM professionals focus on to prevent harm and fulfill ethical responsibilities?

• Improving only the internal logic of the system

• Reframing UI/UX as a primary patient safety and risk management discipline

• Enhancing data security measures

• Reducing the number of users

• Increasing the number of database queries

Which of the following best describes the link between UI/UX and patient safety?

• Patient safety is unrelated to the design of user interfaces.

• Effective UI/UX design can enhance patient engagement and compliance.

• UI/UX only affects the visual appeal of medical systems.

• UI/UX is only important for marketing healthcare products.

• Design-induced medical errors can lead to clinical harm through interface failures.

What is a key aspect of the user-centered design (UCD) process in healthcare?

• Focusing solely on technical specifications.

• Designing without considering clinical relevance.

• Applying iterative phases and core principles to clinically relevant scenarios.

• Conducting user research to inform design decisions.

• Ignoring user feedback during development.

Which challenge is commonly faced when designing healthcare UI/UX?

• High cognitive loads and diverse user capabilities in high-pressure environments.

• Low cognitive loads for all users.

• Uniform user capabilities across all clinical staff.

• Lack of need for user testing.

• Inconsistent user feedback during the design process.

What is the primary focus when creating low-fidelity wireframes for healthcare systems?

• Using industry-standard tools and focusing on structure over aesthetics.

• Ensuring user accessibility and ease of navigation.

• Maximizing visual aesthetics.

• Ignoring industry conventions.

• Adding as many features as possible.

How should design decisions be justified in the context of healthcare UI/UX?

• By connecting UI elements to UCD principles, patient safety, and user story requirements.

• By copying designs from unrelated industries.

• By minimizing user involvement.

• By personal preference of the designer.

• By conducting user research and testing.

Given a scenario where a medication administration interface causes frequent dosage errors, how would you apply the UI/UX-patient safety link to address the issue?

• Implement user training programs to minimize errors.

• Remove all interface warnings.

• Ignore the errors as user mistakes.

• Increase the number of steps required to administer medication.

• Redesign the interface to reduce the likelihood of dosage errors, citing this as a design-induced medical error.

If you are tasked with developing a new healthcare application, how would you ensure your wireframes meet industry standards and user needs?

• Skip wireframing and go straight to coding.

• Use industry-standard tools and conventions, prioritizing structure over aesthetics.

• Conduct user research to gather feedback on wireframe designs.

• Focus only on the color scheme.

• Design based on your own preferences.
