Abstract

This report is the final outcome of a master thesis; the final examination for a Master of Science in Interaction Design at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden. It was carried out at the Unite Solutions R & D at Ascom Wireless Solutions during spring-summer of 2013. We would like to thank everybody that contributed with their time, energy and knowledge, without whom this outcome would have been impossible. Special thanks to our supervisors at Ascom; Anna Engström and Jan Bentzer. We would also like to thank our supervisor at Chalmers University of Technology; Olof Torgersson for valuable input and support. Last but not least we would like to thank the nurses that user tested our prototype for their contribution and valuable feedback on our design.
