Abstract :
The wireless system was designed to comprise of integrated biomedical sensors which were developed into a robust human-technology interface. The human factors evaluation was accomplished through the design and implementation of a usability study, which focused on the relationship between the BioRadio 110TM (Cleveland Medical Products, Cleveland, OH) with integrated bio-technologies, the human subject user and the home healthcare provider
