Description
Despite the potential benefits of pharmacogenomics application, patient awareness is lacking. We propose a unique augmented reality based interactive educational application (PGxKnow), developed in Microsoft Hololens, that has the potential to improve understanding of pharmacogenomics. Two pharmacists used cognitive work analysis for developing the educational components and created step-by-step detailed approach to explain mutations in the DNA leading to protein-substrate change causing adverse events. Two research assistants participated in a quick usability study.
Learning Objective: 1. Explore unique features of PGxKnow,: a pharmacogenomics educational application in augmented reality
2. Identify future opportunities to engage patients for reducing adverse events
3. Understand the implications of future technology usage in patient education
