Abstract:

ENG
The goal of the project was to investigate the suitability of an existing mobile medical information system (created by Duodecim Publications Ltd.) for field use by the Finnish Defense Forces, when used with Nokia 9210 Communicator. Specific targets of this research were the usability, usefulness, and performance of the system; special interest was attached also to how the technology was adopted by the users, a group of medical doctors undergoing their military service, serving as military physicians. The project was carried out as a co-operation between IAMSR and Finnish Defence Forces during a period ranging from fall 2005 until the summer of 2006.

Projektin tarkoituksena oli selvittää (Duodecim Publications Ltd:n kehittämän) mobiilin lääketieteellisen tietokannan soveltuvuutta Puolustusvoimien kenttäkäytöön nykymuodossaan, Nokia 9210 Communicatorilla käytettynä. Tutkimuksen kohteena olivat erityisesti laitteiston käytettävyys, hyödyllisyys ja toimivuus. Lisäksi mielenkiinnon erityisenä kohteena oli miten hyvin käyttäjät (lääkintä RUK:n käyneet kokelaat) hyväksyvät laitteiston ja ottavat sen käyttöön. Projekti toteutettiin IAMSRn ja Puolustusvoimien yhteistyönä aikavälillä syksy 2005 – kesä 2006.
