... there are no simple 'right' answers for most web design questions (at least not for the important ones). What works is good, integrated design that fills a need--carefully thought out, well executed, and tested.

Meadows, Susan and Kelly, Richard (1989): Human Factors of Blood Glucose Monitoring. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 33rd Annual Meeting 1989. p. 1168.

A study of errors associated with the use of portable blood glucose meters, completed in 1989 by the Food and Drug Administration, showed many examples where human factors principles could have an impact on the accuracy of the blood glucose values. This demonstration will show how human factors principles can be applied to the evaluation of the instruction manuals, meter design features, and interface considerations. A 12-minute video highlighting these principles and showing footage of diabetics using these meters will be presented along with mock ups of potential design features and changes in instructions that could enhance the user's ability to obtain more accurate readings. This work may have broader generic application to user error problems for all medical devices and healthcare systems.
