Brief summary
The goal of this study is to conduct human factors validation testing with the Pulsenmore ES home Ultrasound device in the video-guided mode of operation (participants) and the clinician-guided mode of operation (participants and healthcare professionals (HCP)) to evaluate whether the device/user interface can be used by the intended users without any serious issues or errors under that intended use and actual use conditions. The intended users will be qualitatively assessed via observation and cognitive debrief and usability testing methodology. Participants will be remotely observed during the video-guided fetal scanning actual process and participants and HCPs will be remotely observed during the clinician-guided fetal scanning actual process.
