For space development, the design team conceived the Minimum Viable Prototype Lab, a participatory design workshop. The use of minimum resources was the backbone of the workshop, as participants would focus on functional or atmospheric requirements to design an Acoustic Cabin and a Proximity Room. The use of cardboard sets helped the users focus on functional requirements. High-quality renderings and floor plans were used to generate discussion about space atmospheres. We share the resulting prototypes and the benefits for getting different points of view. We also discuss the role of images, drawings, and renderings to inform the perception and possibilities of space.","PeriodicalId":228302,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Health Design","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125542737","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As everyday Americans volunteered to be first to receive placebo or novel therapeutics in the quest to end a global outbreak, suddenly we as a community were also informed of clinical trials, vaccine safety and development, and research design. As engagement spreads and the opportunity becomes ripe to build a community of researchers, patients, and clinicians and transform what has historically been termed “human subjects” in clinical research, we encourage this drive to strengthen the clinical research ecosystem with a primary focus on patient involvement in all phases of codeveloping clinical research design.","PeriodicalId":228302,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Health Design","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128694866","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These insights lead to areas of agreed-upon service improvement priorities that can have sustained impact on design, quality, and safety through partnership and shared leadership. Quality Time was a research study that investigated whether experience-based co-design could effectively capture service experience in Emergency Departments (EDs) in the United Kingdom (UK). Researchers undertook this study in response to a mandate to address one of the quality indicators (service experience) outlined by the UK Department of Health and the Royal College of Emergency Medicine. The study’s primary aim was to establish whether EBCD could be employed to assess and redesign the service experience for patients and staff in UK Emergency Departments. One specific output from the Quality Time study was to prioritise improving staff experience—this priority was in direct response to patient sand carers hearing the staff experience. The Quality Time study demonstrates that EBCD is an effective method to hear the staff voice.","PeriodicalId":228302,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Health Design","volume":"155 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123501771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Method A survey of 100 participants was conducted in Melbourne, Australia. Participants were invited to mark the location of two internal organs and the site of pain for two pathologies on a manikin. Five anatomical questions and four clinical scenario questions were randomised prior to data collection. Photographs of participant responses were compared to responses of a doctor, and if a site within the same area was identified the participant was deemed correct. Results Correct identification of body organ site was poor at 34 per cent (±6.6%; CI 95%) and only slightly better for the location of pain related to clinical pathologies at 39 per cent (±6.8%; CI 95%). Respondents were more likely to identify the location of the heart, or pain associated with a myocardial infarction; 51.2 per cent (±15.3%; CI 95%) and 79.6 per cent (±10.7%; CI 95%), respectively. A minority, 18.6 per cent (±11.6%; CI 95%), were able to locate the gallbladder, and fewer still, 6.4 per cent (±7%; CI 95%), identified the location of pain due to cholelithiasis (gallstones). Conclusion Most respondents failed to identify the major organs or the likely location of pain for related pathologies. Limited anatomical knowledge is reflected in the literature, however, these results were poorer than previous studies suggest. These data have implications for help-seeking behaviour and may be a factor in delayed presentation for serious pathology.","PeriodicalId":228302,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of Health Design","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121515694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
