System-Assisted Pharmaceutical Validation

A large part of the injuries that occur in healthcare are medication-related injuries. This mainlyaffects individual patients, but it also constitutes a major cost to society. At the UppsalaUniversity Hospital, there is currently a warning system in connection with the prescription ofmedicines. However, this system does not work optimally. The Uppsala Region therefore wantsto develop and implement a more advanced warning system, with the hope of reducing risksrelated to the use of medicines.In this thesis, a prototype for the new warning system is presented. It is based on the users'needs which have been identified by conducting interviews and observations in line with usercentered design. The prototype has been developed as part of an iterative process wheredifferent stages have been continuously evaluated for optimal user experience. The project hasalso identified many challenges, primarily related to current IT systems that are used at thehospital, but also laws and regulations that need to be considered when continuing to developthe system in the future.
