Using feedback intervention theory to guide clinical dashboard design.
The provision of feedback to clinicians and organizations on the quality of care they provide is thought to influence clinician and organizational behavior leading to care improvements. Clinical Dashboards use data visualization techniques to provide feedback to individuals on their performance compared to quality metrics. In this paper the authors outline a theoretical approach to the design of a clinical dashboard; Feedback Intervention Theory (FIT).

The development of heuristics for evaluation of dashboard visualizations.
Heuristic evaluation is used in human-computer interaction studies to assess the usability of information systems. This article develops a heuristic evaluation checklist that can be used to evaluate systems that produce information visualizations. The authors suggest that a checklist of usability heuristics for evaluating information visualization systems can contribute to assuring high quality in electronic data systems developed for health care.
