HUMAN FACTORS IN HEALTHCARE_
This project focuses on developing a human-centered, repeatable 3D scanning process to support the customization of pediatric CPAP masks in dynamic clinical environments. Through contextual inquiry, stakeholder interviews, and usability research with nurses, physicians, and parents, the team identified key barriers to accurate data capture and device fit. Julianne contributed to the development of portable scanning protocols, prototyping of facial interface components, and workflow validation in a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). Applying human factors engineering and process modeling, the project enables more reliable and efficient data collection in hospital settings to advance inclusive design and improve outcomes for pediatric patients.
Poster presented at the 2024 HFES International Symposium: on Human Factors and Ergonomics in Health Care.
Design Objectives:
// Seamless workflow integration in PICU environment / Inclusive customization for diverse patient needs / Repeatable and reliable data collection methods
