Analysis of Gaze Information Patterns of Nurses Gathering Patient Information Using Electronic Health Records

Abstract

The objective of this study was to clarify gaze information patterns of nurses gathering patient information using electronic health records. We recorded the electronic health record screen on which nurses' gazes were presented using an eye tracker and analyzed the recorded images. The analysis revealed two types of gaze information patterns of nurses engaged in patient information gathering. However, no regularity was observed in the gaze information patterns of the nurses viewing the electronic health record sections after selecting a patient.
