Abstract

Developing surgical information systems to support time-critical processes with significant internalised domain knowledge requires a systematic approach to analysing the surgical workflow. Such an approach is necessary if the information needs that govern surgical tasks are to be identified and subsequently communicated within multidisciplinary development teams. Addressing this need, this chapter proposes a design framework, known as a workflow integration matrix. This aids ergonomists, system developers and designers to create a knowledge base of information requirements within the surgical workflow to define the user requirements.
