Health Trend Review and Follow-Up
Design a patient dashboard that highlights a concerning health trend and helps arrange clinician follow-up with confirmation.
The brief
Understand the problem
Background
Home health readings can help a care team notice change, but consumer devices produce gaps and errors. Automatically booking care without context can cause confusion, while urgent symptoms need a faster route than routine scheduling.
User context
Arthur monitors blood pressure at home after a medication change. Several readings are elevated, and he needs to understand the trend and confirm an appropriate follow-up visit.
Product problem
Patients need understandable trends, data-quality context, urgency guidance, and control over any appointment request.
Objective
Design trend review, reading verification, care recommendation, and appointment confirmation for monitored blood pressure.
What to design
Define the experience
Required experience
- Review readings and data quality over time
- Correct or annotate an unusual reading
- Understand routine versus urgent next steps
- Choose and confirm a follow-up appointment
Screens and states
- Monitoring overview
- Reading detail
- Care recommendation
- Appointment selection
Core user flow
Follow the critical path
- 01
Arthur opens an elevated trend alert
- 02
He marks one reading as taken with the wrong cuff position
- 03
The revised view recommends routine clinician review and lists urgent symptoms separately
- 04
He selects a time and confirms the appointment request
