New methods for user driven innovation in the health care sector

Abstract:
"This project aims to draw attention to user driven innovation in the health care sector. The goal is to develop and test methods for user driven innovation in the context of health care. Methods which have proven valuable in industrial contexts may lack suitable counterparts within the health care sector. The report consists of an overview of innovation theory, hereunder user driven innovation directions, an analysis of the health care sector, the need for innovation and the specificities which have to be taken into consideration in innovation processes and a presentation of state of the art examples from the Nordic region and the USA. Most important, the study comprises six pilot projects which have been carried out during the study. The pilot projects are supposed to test various methods of user driven innovation and the results give an idea of where one has to put effort in order to make innovation processes in the health care sector as smooth, effective and successful as possible."

I'm "playing" EVOKE as well. Social learning platforms are the way of the future in my opinion and EVOKE is a good way to exprience it.

Kristi, thanks for the links and see you on EVOKE.

What Can Design Thinking Do For Healthcare?
- by Craig Brandis -

"In the medical device space, lack of good user-centered design can impact patient safety. What do suppose a medical product line and the related training, service and support would look like if it were designed from the ground up with goal of focusing like a laser on the entire user-experience?"

New Media Medicine at MIT Media Lab Their manifesto:

Principle #1: Patients are the most underutilized resource in health care.

Principle #2: The revolution must take place in our everyday lives, not in the doctor’s office or the lab.

Principle #3: Information transparency, not just information, is the solution.
