“…The everyday use of tablets by the general public has similarly not received wide attention in research. Instead, investigations have focused on specific aspects of use, such as education (e.g., Jahnke, Svendsen, Johansen, & Zander, 2014), healthcare (e.g., Lin et al, 2013), touch and gestures (e.g., Kleimola, Laine, Litvinova, & Vuorimaa, 2013), and the use of styli (e.g., Badam, Chandrasegaran, Elmqvist, & Ramani, 2014). Further, only specific populations have been studied, such as children (e.g., Mohd Shukri & Howes, 2014), students (e.g., Bryfczynski, Pargas, Cooper, & Klymkowsky, 2012), those with autism (e.g., Hourcade, Williams, Miller, Huebner, & Liang, 2013), health care providers (e.g., Li & Alem, 2013), patients (e.g., Jacobs, Clawson, & Mynatt, 2014), and office workers (e.g., Stawarz, Cox, Bird, & Benedyk, 2013).…”

In recent years, smartphone and tablet ownership has shown continued growth; however, there is a lack of research thoroughly investigating the use of these devices within the general public. This paper describes a largescale diary study with U.S. mobile device owners, examining details of smartphone and tablet use. Results provide a comprehensive breakdown of frequent activities and contexts of use, highlighting key differences in smartphone and tablet use. Activities on smartphones were found to be dominated by communication needs, while tablets were frequently used for consumption and entertainment. Both devices were most often used at home, with tablets rarely leaving the home. Within the home, smartphones were used mostly in the bedroom, and tablets in the living room. Both devices were used frequently while doing something else, such as using tablets primarily while watching TV. Conclusions discuss implications for enriching the experience of mobile devices and opportunities for future research.

“…Studies on workplace efficiency and patient care have brought forward the need to improve workflow processes [1], particularly with the implementation of electronic health records (EHRs) and documentation requirements. Nurses and nursing assistants provide a range of interventions for each patient, which are determined through planned nursing care or doctor prescriptions.…”

Background Nurses are increasingly spending time on computers, and providing them with a tailored tool to access clinical information and perform documentation at the bedside could help to improve their efficiency. Designing an app to support nurses’ work at the bedside is a challenging task, given the complexity of the care process. Objective This study aimed to present the design, development, and testing of a smartphone app for nurses guided by an adapted software development life cycle model that takes into consideration the complexity and constraints of a health care setting. Methods The model drives us through an iterative development process intersected by 3 stages of formative evaluation of growing ecological validity. Results The initial requirements identification stage included 11 participants who helped us select the most important functionalities to integrate into the tool. Starting with a usability evaluation allowed for the identification of design issues that could have caused misuse. Then, making on-site evaluations under the supervision of an investigator helped to understand the adequacy of the tool with limited risks. Finally, the on-site evaluation allowed us to validate the acceptance of the app by caregivers. Conclusions The interpretation of the collected evaluation confirms the necessary involvement of end users early in the process to help address the heterogeneity of the nursing workflow processes in the different wards. We also highlight the delicate balance between high-security measures to protect access to patient data and maintaining ease of access for efficiency and usability. Although a close collaboration with clinicians throughout the entire project facilitated the development of a tailored solution, it was also important to involve all stakeholders, in particular, the information technology (IT) security officers.
