Study Develops Drug Safety Dashboard Design Principles

Researchers publish a 2026 JMIR Med Inform study that develops and refines dashboard design principles for drug safety using affordance theory and three iterative co-design cycles with professional and nonprofessional end users. The work produced eight design principles and a high-fidelity prototype evaluated with an overall usability score of 84%. Findings aim to improve interpretability of pharmacovigilance data and inform similar health-information dashboards.
