摘要:

Data drawn from a larger study of a computerized hospital information system are used to explain differential accommodation of personnel to technological change on nursing units. Two measures of accommodation were used: Adaptiveness I, the difference between time of patient's discharge and time computer entry was made; and Adaptiveness II, the difference between time patient census is received at the nursing station and the time this census is verified via the computer system. Variables compared with these two measures included satisfaction (employee turnover), centralization, productivity, efficiency, and size, Adaptiveness was found to be inversely related to number of beds on the unit. The study led to an exploration of the literature in light of the findings.

Under such circumstances, persons are less able to judge the passage of time accurately and often exhibit related behavioral aberrations.

摘要:

Fifty adult febrile patients, 25 men and 25 women, had six one-in minute rectal temperature readings taken in rooms ranging from 72 to 82 F. The Maximum and optimum rectal thermometer placement times for febrile adults were three and two minutes respectively. It was concluded that two minutes would adequately reflect adults rectal temperatures. This confirms the findings from previous studies and is less time than that recommended in some texts and procedure books.
