In this practical seminar, you will learn how to efficiently perform formative and summative usability evaluations while meeting the regulatory requirements of IEC 62366-1 and the FDA.
Using an example device, you will apply the essential parts of the usability engineering process to plan and perform a summative usability evaluation and carry it out yourself.
Do you have any further questions? Would you like another appointment or consider an In-house seminar? Get in touch with us!
We will first introduce you to the similarities and differences between formative and summative evaluations in the context of the relevant requirements. Based on best practices, you will learn when each usability evaluation method is best used to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the user interface and unknown use errors. This will increase your chances of developing devices that are not only safe but also successful.
We have not yet received any written feedback on this seminar.
You will plan a summative evaluation on your own as part of active participation in a real-life case study. We will then head to our fully equipped usability lab, where you will have the opportunity to slip into the role of moderator or note-taker, conduct the study you have just planned, and then analyze and document the results in accordance with industry standards. This practical experience enables sustainable learning and allows you to directly apply the knowledge you have acquired in your company.
You will learn how the intelligent use of tools can simplify usability evaluations and significantly reduce the time required for evaluation. We show you how to easily document observed use difficulties, use errors, and other relevant observations, evaluate them systematically, and create a clear, standards-compliant report. For documentation, you receive our tried-and-tested templates, which we have used successfully in hundreds of projects.
Our experienced usability expert has successfully conducted numerous formative and summative usability evaluations for various medical and IVD medical devices worldwide. Benefit from this comprehensive practical knowledge and valuable tips and tricks to conduct successful usability evaluations yourself in the future.
There is a voluntary online exam at the end of the seminar (duration: approx. 20 min). By passing this exam, you will receive a certificate proving your newly acquired knowledge and skills in addition to your attendance confirmation.
