Abstract
In order to increase physician acceptance and use, it is necessary for clinical information systems to better support workflow and connectivity. Towards that end, it is advantageous to develop clinical applications that support a range of platforms and mobile devices. However, differences in design/development approaches, technical limitations, and user interactivity across devices result in inconsistent features and user experiences, limiting functionality, usability, and transfer of training. In the current project, a browser-based physician decision-support and order entry prototype was developed for the Windows desktop and Pocket PC in parallel. Corresponding functionality was implemented on both platforms via an iterative, user-centered design approach that utilized components of the desktop version to create the PocketPC screens. Subsequent physician feedback demonstrated high transfer of training from the desktop version to the PocketPC. The findings from this work can be applied to other multi-platform user interface projects.
