摘要:

The Urological Nursing Information System [UNIS] is an expert-system prototype designed to help nurses perform patient assessments on elderly nursing home residents known to be incontinent of urine. A study was conducted to evaluate the appropriateness of the patient-assessment parameters stored in the knowledge base of UNIS. These parameters were stored as objects—a kind of template for holding related clusters of data, facts, rules, hypotheses, or any knowledge in a single conceptual unit. Each object was rated for its appropriateness by 14 nurse experts. Resulting scores ranged from +14 to −14. The effect of the nurse experts' educational backgrounds and work settings on their ratings were also analyzed. The results indicated that 95.6% of the objects received favorable ratings from the nurse experts. Educational background was not a significant factor X2= 5.2, but work settings did have a significant affect X2= 21.07, p = 0.01.

摘要:

Does nursing case management compute? In this article, the author attempts to explain how computerizing the team plan of care and critical pathways decreases paperwork, makes it easier to develop standardized team care plans, enhances quality improvement trending, and is flexible enough to update the plan of care according to the patient's changing needs. The Nurse Case Management Computerized System puts the patient care team plan into an interactive computer program. The computer does the work of presenting the nurse with care plan options and printing a hard copy ready to implement. Use of the computer program enhances the health care team's ability to individualize the team plan of care while maintaining patient care standards. The system is also used to collect patient care data automatically and to trend for quality improvement.

摘要:

The purpose of this study was to obtain information about usage of the Nursing Minimum Data Set [NMDS]. Forty-six individuals [44%] who requested the NMDS Data Collection Manual responded to a mailed questionnaire. Most respondents reported actually using the Manual to educate other nurses or to structure nursing documention. More than one third of the respondents used all of the elements within the NMDS, but the majority used, or intended to use, the elements in the Nursing Care category. The majority of NMDS elements that were being used, or intended to be used, were available from handwritten patient records. The NMDS elements had been recorded on an ongoing basis by 86% of the respondents, but only 31% could retrieve readily all of the elements. Implications for access to comparable, minimum nursing care and resources data are discussed.

摘要:

This article describes the implementation of a computer assisted instruction clinical simulation, as an evaluation strategy for determining baccalaureate students' clinical decision-making skills. Students' reactions toward this strategy have been consistently positive. Similarly, faculty were satisfied with this method of assessment. Our experience has convinced us that computer simulation is an objective, efficacious, and pragmatic method for measuring students' clinical decision-making skills.
