New software simplifies computing but complicates selection. This study introduces a novel medical software evaluation paradigm, enhancing usability assessment and selection processes for better system design and use.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Informatics
  • Software Engineering
  • Human-Computer Interaction

Background:

  • Fourth-generation software has increased computing ease but created challenges in evaluation and selection.
  • Existing medical software evaluation guidelines are often too general for practical application.
  • Conventional evaluation paradigms exhibit weaknesses requiring a more robust approach.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To address the complexities in evaluating and selecting medical software.
  • To propose a new, comprehensive evaluation paradigm for medical software systems.
  • To enhance the usability assessment and selection process for medical software.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a new evaluation paradigm with a strong theoretical framework.
