Introduction: Choosing the right type of device is important to support users of Health Information Systems. In addition to cost, durability and simplicity, staffing levels and hospital workflows affect in the selected. The purpose of this study was to identify the preferences of users in device selection.Methods: This applied research with qualitative method, Focus group, was conducted in 2014. Population research is users of HIS. They have been divided into three distinct groups based on their computer skills and medical knowledge. The sixteen users were invited to three focus group meetings and have been asked to explain their criteria for selection of the device. Questionnaires were also used in order to compare the results of discussions quantitatively. The reliability and validity of the questionnaire were confirmed by Cronbach's alpha (0.86). The analysis was performed using descriptive statistics.Results: The mean response of participants shows that end-users with high level of medical knowledge and computer skills, prefer to use tablets (3.75) and then PCs(3.67). Medical staff without computer skills selected tablets(4), workstation on wheels (WOW)(2.5), wall mounted workstation(2.5) and PCs (2.25). Ultimately members with skills in using the computer and lack of medical knowledge, selected PCs (3.37), tablets(3.29), Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) (3.17), wall mounted workstation(4.2) and WOW(2.67).Conclusion: This study showed that the best device for the medical staff is Tablet and PC is the best device for administrative staff.

Physicians’ Civil Responsibility has always been among important legal issues and thus, subject to rules faced with various challenges rooted in different approaches towards civil responsibilities. The present study investigated some of the world’s legal systems and different dimensions of responsibility to find proper strategies for securing patients’ rights as well as other issues in this respect. The study was a library research in which Iranian law and justice databases such as the Information Center of Judicial Institute and Iran's Legal Database along with sixty other resources have been exploited directly and indirectly within the period from May 2014 to September 2015. It has investigated legal and jurisprudential texts, internal and international rules and judicial processes acted upon in Iran, France and America in a comparative manner. Actually, the key points of the study turn round civil responsibility, fault, risk, irreparable loss, permissive waste, agreement and acquittal. The findings showed that Iranian legal system has not been able to take a fixed stance towards physicians’ civil responsibility in the past, e.g. in a certain period of time, based on some of the jurisprudents’ views, it has sometimes adopted risk and some other times fault as the basis for Physicians’ civil responsibility. However, in the course of time, it has come to follow a more optimistic approach which, if continued, can secure the patients’ and people’s rights in a more acceptable manner.
