چکیده
Smart medical interfaces have the potential to address the unique health needs of each individual user. However, they must be carefully designed and tested to provide a supportive and non-stressful experience for users who are ill or overloaded.

The paper also illustrates the use of patient-entered data to drive multiple processes, showing how a smart medical interface can mediate among multiple stakeholders.
