Garde, M.C. van der Voort, The Procedure Usability Game: A Participatory Game for the Development of Complex Medical Procedures & Products, Proceedings of the 19th CIRP Design Conference – Competitive Design, Cranfield University, 30-31 March 2009, pp483978-0-9557436-4-1http://hdl.handle.net/1826/3661Organised by: Cranfield UniversityWhen product designers develop advanced medical appliances, they have to deal with medical treatment procedures. If treatment procedures are ignored by designers, final products might conflicts with the hospital practice. Therefore, the development of procedures and product requirements should take place before or parallel with appliance design. However, the development can only be realized when access to the knowledge of users of the appliances is available. This paper discusses the application of a participatory design game to facilitate the participation of users in the development of a treatment procedure including appliances. The game has proven its usefulness in a case study.enCopyright: Cranfield University 2009Participatory DesignUsabilityDesign GameMedical ApplianceConference paper
