This study identifies key quality characteristics for developing effective medical decision support systems (MDSS) methods. Findings establish user-valued content crucial for healthcare requirements engineering.

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Software Engineering
  • Decision Support Systems

Background:

  • Developing medical decision support systems (MDSS) requires robust methods for requirements engineering.
  • Existing methods may not fully address the unique needs of healthcare applications.
  • User value and specific quality characteristics are critical for effective MDSS development.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze quality characteristics for requirements engineering methods in MDSS development.
  • To identify factors important to users for MDSS method development in healthcare.
  • To establish user-defined content requirements for MDSS methods.

Main Methods:

  • Grounded theory framework for analyzing quality characteristics.
  • Quality Function Deployment (QFD) to rank functions by user value.

  • Focus group studies for data collection and validation.
  • Main Results:

    • Identified key quality characteristics for MDSS requirements engineering methods.
    • Ranked functions based on their connection to user value.
    • Determined factors participants deemed important for healthcare requirements engineering methods.
    • Established user-centric content that MDSS methods should support.

    Conclusions:

    • User value is a primary driver for selecting and developing MDSS requirements engineering methods.
    • A grounded theory approach combined with QFD and focus groups effectively identifies critical method characteristics.
    • The findings provide a foundation for creating user-centered methods tailored to healthcare needs.
