,(T) in STEEEP Timely-Reduce waits and sometimes harmful delays for both those who receive
and those who give care.
(E) in STEEEP Effective-Provide services based on scientific knowledge to all who could
benefit, and refrain from providing services to those not likely to benefit.
(E) in STEEEP Efficient-Avoid waste, including waste of equipment, supplies, ideas, and
energy.
(E) in STEEEP Equitable-Provide care that does not vary in quality because of personal
characteristics such as gender, ethnicity, geographic location, and
socioeconomic status.
(P) in STEEEP Patient-centered Provide care that is respectful of and responsive to individual
patient preferences, needs, and values, and ensure that patient values guide all
clinical decisions.

Knowledge Transformation (Ace Star Model)
is defined as the conversion of research findings from discovery of primary
research results, through a series of stages and forms, to increase the
relevance, accessibility, and utility of evidence at the point of care to improve
healthcare and health outcomes by way of evidence-based care.
, Ace Star Model These five points are discovery research, evidence summary, translation to
guidelines, practice integration, and evaluation of process and outcome
clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) The IOM defines clinical guidelines as "systematically developed statements to
assist practitioner and patient decisions about appropriate health care for
specific clinical circumstances.
usability 1.Increased user productivity and efficiency 2.Decreased user errors and
increased safety 3.Improved cognitive support
human factors is "the scientific discipline concerned with the understanding of interactions
among humans and other elements of a system, and the profession that applies
theory, principles, data and methods to design in order to optimize human
well-being and overall system performance."
In healthcare, human factors might concern the design of a new operating
room to better support teamwork and patient flow.
ergonomics used interchangeably with human factors by the HFES in Europe but in the U.S.
and other countries its focus is on human performance with physical
characteristics of tools, systems, and machines
i.e. power drill fitting in hand
Human-computer interaction (HCI) is the study of how people design, implement, and evaluate interactive
computer systems in the context of users' tasks and work
usability is often used interchangeably with HCI when the product is a computer but
usability also concerns products beyond computers. Usability is also more
focused on interactions within a specific context or environment for a specific
product.
Formally, the ISO defines usability as the extent to which a product can be used
by specific users in a specific context to achieve specific goals with
effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction.
allows users to achieve goals
joint cognitive systems imply that information is shared or distributed among humans and technology.
This framework is useful for examining teamwork in healthcare where team
members work together on patient care
Health Human-Computer Interaction (HHCI) Humans or products can initiate interactions. The information is processed
Framework through either the product or the humans according to characteristics. The
recipient then reacts to the information; for example, a healthcare provider
could read and respond to email from a patient or a product might process
interactions after the "enter" key is pressed. Iterative cycles continue as humans
behave and products act according to defined characteristics. Goals and
planning are implicit within the tasks displayed in the framework.
