Abstract

Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is a leading cause of death worldwide. It is treated with a defibrillating shock from an automated external defibrillator (AED) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation. AEDs are commonly used by minimally-trained rescuers to treat patients of SCA, and need to be designed to be intuitive to use. However, there are no guidelines or recommendations for the user interface design of these devices, and as such, there are obvious inconsistencies in the aesthetics and functionality, of AEDs currently on the market. This study was designed to assess the variability and determine the visual hierarchy of a range of public access AEDs. This was done by analysing the user’s eye gaze behaviour in 400 AED sense-making sessions (10 AEDs * 40 subjects/users).
