Asthma Management System Design Team Stuart Bartow Raef Haggag Mara Hemminger Chase Ighani Daniel Lidor Introduction • Goals for AccuLung System – Provide a mobile resource for tracking asthma symptoms and history. – Provide a graphical view of user’s asthma history. – Track environmental conditions related to asthma triggers. – Help prevent imminent asthma attacks. Application Requirements • PDA with color display • Wireless capabilities • Digital Peak Flow Meter with IR port Project Tour Usability Procedure • Users: 4 asthmatics and 5 non-asthmatics • Tasks: • Set up a patient profile • Record data from a Peak Expiratory Flow test • Check recent test result trends – graph results - compare • View current environmental conditions – Pollen Count – Temperature – Humidity – Air Quality Index • Save History, medications list and other information Usability Findings • Graph too difficult to read • Environment button not easy to locate • Enter Manually button crashes if no data is entered • Color choice – buttons and environment readings – to give meaning • Add ‘personal best’ to graph • Move/Add ‘export’ button to graph page Future Plans • More robust graphing capabilities. – Environmental Triggers – Medications • Multiple user tracking • Record asthma triggers • Develop physician version Acknowledgments • • • • • Dr. Shneiderman Adam Perer Study participants Dr. Scharfstein Our reviewers
