Abstract
Prior to implementation, front line clinical staff assessed a new crash cart in a simulated environment. The contents of the cart were assessed during a simulated code on a number of metrics; time on task, number of physical interactions, errors, as well as qualitative feedback from participants. These metrics helped researchers redesign the cart contents to improve visibility and organization of supplies. Using an iterative design cycle, the redesign cart and contents showed a reduction in time on task, physical interactions, and errors for most scenarios.
