109. The Use of Eye-Tracking Technology to Measure Cognitive-Behavioral Processes During IV Medication Administration
SessionPoster Session 1
DescriptionThe use of intravenous smart pump (IVSP) technology for delivering medication to hospitalized patients has become widespread in the United States as a standard of care. Despite its prevalence, the complex process of delivering IV medication poses challenges, with numerous steps and potential opportunities for frequent errors that pose serious risk to patient safety. The integration of eye tracking technology presents a significant opportunity to enhance our understanding of IVSP user experience which has not yet been explored. Using novice user participants, this pilot study aims to develop a research method that combines eye tracking and established usability approaches for understanding current IVSP technology user experience. Findings indicate one particular IVSP was not only preferred subjectively but is also faster and less error-prone. Through innovative research methods involving end-users, we can enhance usability and revolutionize the process of IV medication administration, subsequently mitigating the risk to patient safety.
