Background: Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) have been identified to aid clinical decision-making, but few studies focus on the application of CDSS in intensive care unit (ICU) delirium, and particularly usability testing is not employed. We aimed to develop and conduct usability testing of Artificial Intelligence Assisted Prevention and Management for Delirium (AI-AntiDelirium), a CDSS designed to identify delirium and modifiable risk factors and prevent and manage delirium in the ICU.
Methods: Between January and April 2021, a cross-sectional study including 117 ICU nurses recruited for usability testing from four ICUs in two university-affiliated hospitals was conducted.
