Among the countless elements for healing environment in healthcare facility, 'privacy' has been rather neglected in general hospital designs in Korea. The fact may be due either to present situation of excessively crowded patients or to cultural origin which more stresses on the mass than on individuals. However, as patient amenity has increasingly become important, privacy should be viewed as one of the key elements in the general hospital design, in order to improve the quality of patient service as well as to compete with other hospitals. Also it is very important that those methods for privacy improvement should be not only theoretically correct but also practical enough to be compatible with medical efficiency, space availability or construction cost within a particular hospital. The purpose of this case study is to present an actual examples to improve patients' privacy adopted in the schematic design of the Seoul Asan Hospital renovation project, along with comparisons with other hospital cases.

Multimedia systems present information by various media, for example, video, sound, music, animation, movie, etc., in addition to the text which has long been used for conveying the information. Among many multimedia applications, the multimedia information retrieval systems commercialized in the forms of multimedia encyclopedia CD-ROMs, benefited from various media for their ability to present information in an efficient and complete way. But using several media, on the other hand, may cause end users' confusion and furthermore, poorly designed user interface often exacerbates the situation. In this study, the multimedia systems were studied from the standpoint of usability. The conceptual framework of the user interface of the multimedia system was newly defined. And 100 initial variables for user interface design of general multimedia systems were suggested through literature survey and expert opinions based upon the framework developed. Among various application areas, the multimedia information retrieval systems were chosen for investigation, and 36 variables particularly relevant to user interface of the multimedia information retrieval systems were selected. According to the sequential research strategy, the variables that were considered to be most important were finally selected through a screening stage. A part of selected variables were verified through a human factors experiment as the first step of sequential research. Based upon the result of the experiment, guidelines for user interface design were provided. For future study, the variables remained will be Investigated and the study will expand to another application areas.
