Functional Requirements

Event Entry and Display Laptop workstations Mobile devices

Track Performance

Manage Users

Interactions Database

Non-Functional Requirements

Quick interaction 10 seconds or 7 keystrokes

Easy to learn 1 or 2 uses to familiarize

Privacy/Security

Improve overall patient flow

Extensible and dynamic

Market Survey

Current Display within the CCU unit at Methodist West Lacking electronic way to display and record

information about current patients Other departments within Hospital are receiving

electronic systems while the CCU is not

Old “System” Marker and Dry erase board Hand-written notes

Assumptions/ Limitation

Users will be hospital personal within the CCU unit and associated doctors

The network will be reliable

Display board will be viewable by personal within the CCU only

Beta version scheduled for late September

Allows for two month-long cycles of: Gathering usability issues, bug reports, missing

requirements (1 week)   Implementing new requirements and fixing

bugs (2 weeks)   Redeploying the application (1 week)

Risks and Mitigations

Availability of client, or lack thereof. Increased flexibility with meeting times

Privacy/Security issues Coordinating with HIPPA privacy officer

Scope – Requirements creep Sticking to the project schedule
