Principles for the conduct of human factors/ergonomics in healthcare: a scoping study of the published evidence by Marie E Ward, Paul O’Connor, Angela O’Dea, Mahnaz Sharafkhani, Margaret Codd, Mary Browne

“…The principles are that HFE has a systems focus, is design driven and focuses on both performance and well-being outcomes.Objectives The objectives of this scoping review are to: identify studies that meet these principles in order to discover how commonly HFE studies meet the principles for the practice of HFE; the scope and characteristics of studies that meet the principles; and the learning that can be gleaned from these studies.Eligibility criteria The principles were operationalised into four criteria that were used to select studies: (1) The intervention acts on more than one aspect or element of the system; (2) a context-relevant needs assessment or systems analysis phase is undertaken to design the intervention; (3) the intervention has an active element that is designed to enhance safety, quality, efficiency, effectiveness or well-being and (4) the intervention is evaluated.Sources of evidence The review considered all studies published in peer-reviewed journals between 2010 and July 2024 in which an HFE or related intervention is presented and evaluated. …”
