Background: Effective team communication is critical in pediatric cardiopulmonary arrest management, where delays or miscommunication can jeopardize survival. TeamScreen, a web-based interface displayed on a large screen, was developed to enhance cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) by providing real-time visualization of clinical data and resuscitation steps aligned with the American Heart Association pediatric advanced life support algorithms.

Objective: This study evaluated the usability of the TeamScreen Figma prototype, evaluating how efficiently and accurately experienced emergency physicians and nurses retrieved critical information during a simulated pediatric in-hospital cardiac arrest scenario. Although no strict time constraints were imposed, participants were instructed to perform the tasks as spontaneously and as quickly as possible.

Methods: Usability testing involved 20 pediatric emergency physicians and nurses with varied CPR experience. Participants performed 21 information retrieval tasks within a simulated pediatric cardiac arrest scenario (shockable rhythm). The data collected included audio-video recordings via the think-aloud method and participant responses to the Post-Study System Usability Questionnaire (PSSUQ) version 3 and a posttest survey. Effectiveness, efficiency, and satisfaction were measured by task completion rates, time-on-task metrics, and PSSUQ scores, respectively. Think-aloud data were analyzed for usability issues using Nielsen Norman Group's rating scale and Bastien and Scapin's ergonomic criteria.

Results: Five physicians and 15 nurses achieved a mean task success rate of 81.19% (SD 16.87%), with a mean completion time of 8.13 (SD 7.07) seconds, calculated across all 21 tasks and all participants. PSSUQ scores reflected high satisfaction (mean 2.40 [SD 1.24] of 7.00; the lower the better), notably for information clarity and system utility. Qualitative analyses identified 16 usability issues, of which 5 were deemed major, primarily involving information visibility, navigation, and density, highlighting areas for interface and workflow enhancement.

Conclusions: The usability evaluation confirmed TeamScreen's potential to improve real-time information access during pediatric CPR, with high task success and satisfaction scores supporting its role in aiding decision-making. Challenges with visibility, navigation, and information density require further refinement. These findings will guide improvements and inform the design of multicenter trials to assess TeamScreen's efficacy in simulation-based resuscitation settings.
