eCST: the Digital medical algorithm

As the Education Materials and Products designer, I was tasked with digitizing a set of healthcare provider algorithm cards. In the medical field, a provider would take these tools and assess patient symptoms prior to diagnosing an illness.

I originally saw the final product as an app meant for tablets since that’s the preferred device in a clinical setting. However, after a lot of user testing, discussions with clinical subject matter experts, and technological constraints, this project turned into a web app.
