What is the AAMI/ANSI HE 75 standard?
The standard was developed by the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI) Human Factors committee in cooperation with the FDA; it supplants HE48 which was written in the mid 80s to provide design guidelines for user interface development in medical devices. The standard is a resource for human factors professionals, engineers, and designers and is expected to be incorporated into the design of all medical devices.
