Abstract

Bexar Data Dive, an online data platform, was created to increase accessibility and use of health and social determinants of health data, such as education, economic barriers to healthcare, and hospitalization rates, to decrease racial/ethnic health disparities throughout Bexar County. A model of user-centered design helped us incorporate community input into the platform. We conducted four interviews and five focus groups to gather information on how people use data - specifically beginner and intermediate-level data users from various educational, governmental, and nonprofit organizations. Then, we launched a community survey to assess specific data needs. Lastly, once the alpha version of Bexar Data Dive was ready, we conducted user testing sessions to measure usability, identify bugs, and gather final feedback before launch. Our findings included many recommendations for incorporating user-centered design in health data management. Participants wanted a health data tool that was easy to use, had the indicators they commonly need, and would provide visualizations for presentations, grants, and other projects.

以用户为中心的设计过程创建健康数据平台的社会决定因素。

创建了一个在线数据平台“贝尔数据潜水”，以增加对健康数据的健康和社会决定因素的获取和使用，如教育、医疗保健的经济障碍和住院率，以减少整个贝尔县的种族/族裔健康差异。以用户为中心的设计模式帮助我们将社区的意见整合到平台中。我们进行了四次访谈和五个焦点小组，以收集人们如何使用数据的信息——特别是来自各种教育、政府和非营利组织的初级和中级数据用户。然后，我们发起了一项社区调查，以评估具体的数据需求。最后，一旦alpha版本的Bexar Data Dive准备就绪，我们就会进行用户测试，以衡量可用性，识别漏洞，并在发布前收集最终反馈。我们的研究结果包括将以用户为中心的设计纳入健康数据管理的许多建议。与会者希望使用一种易于使用的健康数据工具，具有他们通常需要的指标，并为演示文稿、赠款和其他项目提供可视化。
