Fresh eyes: A human-centred design approach to diabetic retinopathy screening in primary care

(2020) Fresh eyes: A human-centred design approach to diabetic retinopathy screening in primary care. PhD thesis, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

All people with diabetes are at risk of vision loss due to the eye disease, diabetic retinopathy (DR). DR is 95% preventable, but there are no early noticeable symptoms. A human-centred research and design approach was used, to explore how to implement DR screening in primary care to meet the needs of Australians with diabetes, particularly Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. The collaborative, iterative investigation identified tensions of living with diabetes, design considerations for screening, instigated community discourse and prompted collective action. The research outcomes contribute towards better understanding and implementation of human-centred DR screening in primary care.

Search Google Scholar™

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
