SUMMARY:We are Here for your Seizure! Lessons Learned from Embedded Human 
 Factors and Hospital Simulation to Design Processes for a New Epilepsy Mon
 itoring Unit
DESCRIPTION:Melinda Jamil, Kari Congenie, Bonnie Satinover, and Abigail Ma
 gdaleno (Advocate Health)\n\nOur healthcare system aimed to enhance the us
 ability and accuracy of seizure assessments in a new Epilepsy Monitoring U
 nit (EMU) by adapting a European seizure assessment tool. Using human fact
 ors engineering (HFE) and translational simulation, we iteratively tested 
 and refined the tool and work system. EMU nurses must support patients dur
 ing seizures with specific assessments, which are critical for diagnosis a
 nd treatment. Our approach involved multidisciplinary collaboration, inclu
 ding epileptologists, nurses, and simulation experts, to develop and evalu
 ate the adapted tool through a series of simulations. Key activities inclu
 ded a needs assessment to define project objectives, tabletop simulations 
 to discuss draft processes, and three 90-minute simulations with nurses, s
 tandardized patients, and experts. We incorporated Iterative design update
 s based on performance observations and feedback, followed by ongoing trai
 ning and feedback sessions. Outcomes included updating the seizure assessm
 ent tool to have clear, concise instructions, visual cues, and a checklist
  format. This approach increased nurse confidence and preparedness, ensuri
 ng the tool met user needs. Our findings emphasize the value of integratin
 g HFE and simulation early in process design to enhance safety, efficiency
 , and user satisfaction in healthcare settings.\n\nTrack: Health Care\n\nS
