title = "Medical information visualization conceptual model for patient-physician health communication",
abstract = "Communication between patients and health care providers may require sharing of data and knowledge that is complex and of high-volume. To support communication of these types of information, visualization techniques and tools can reduce cognitive burden in informed patient-centered health decisions and empower patients in their own care. Designing and implementing effective visualization depend on iterative consideration of cognitive needs and tasks of the patient (physical, intellectual, and linguistic), conceptual needs of the communication process (encoding and decoding, shared mental models, and common ground), and pragmatic requirements of care (culture and values) in making health choices. We discuss the evidence, experience, and motivation for a model, the Medical Information Visualization - - Conceptual Model (MIV-CM), to guide the process of patient-oriented visualization design and implementation.",
