Resumen --En este artículo se presenta la aplicación de un modelo de pruebas de usabilidad a un sistema de monitoreo de signos vitales usados específicamente en Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI) debido a que aproximadamente el 12% de los fallos anuales se presentan en esta área, en donde el 50% de estos fallos son el resultado de problemas de usabilidad. Este trabajo busca medir específicamente la interacción del personal médico con el equipo, empezando con una revisión bibliográfica, luego definiendo el equipo a trabajar. Finalmente, se propone desarrollar una propuesta de protocolo que permita evaluar la usabilidad del mismo y así sugerir algunos cambios que se pueden implementar.Palabras clave --Monitoreo, sistema, UCI, usabilidad.

This is because approximately 12% of annual failures occur in this area and 50% of these are due to usability problems. The model specifically measures the interaction between medical personnel with the equipment, beginning with a bibliographical review, then defining the equipment with which to work to later suggest and develop a protocol proposal which will enable evaluating its usability and thus suggest some changes to be implemented.
