摘要:

In the nursing literature, the term computer simulation refers exclusively to an educational tool that requires the user to respond to simulated events and to engage in the decision-making process. However, computer simulations are frequently constructed to model dynamic systems (systems that change with time] and to randomly simulate real life events in an effort to study complex problems. In this context, computer simulation is a research methodology and is used in a wide variety of disciplines including the behavioral sciences and business management. Nurses will inevitably encounter research studies where computer simulation has been employed. It is also very likely that this methodology will be used as a nursing research tool in the near future. This article introduces and describes the use of computers to model dynamic systems, the theory that supports simulation modeling as a research methodology, and the issues of model validation. Included are examples of four different research problems from diverse fields of study where computer simulation has been applied.

摘要:

This article briefly describes the development and evaluation of six computer assisted learning (CAL) packages for use with renal patients on Continuous Ambulatory Peritoneal Dialysis (CAPD).The factors influencing the choice of CAL as the teaching medium are detailed, and some of the difficulties facing nurses involved in patient education highlighted.An outline of the development of program content is given and the methods to be used in the evaluation are briefly explored. Since data collection has only recently commenced, no conclusions can be drawn. However, the authors' anticipation that the study may help to make inroads into exploring the acceptability of CAL to patients and patient educators is expressed.

摘要:

This baccalaureate program integrated computerized patient care documentation with courses in nursing fundamentals and health assessment. Using an information system designed for acute care settings, students become familiar with computer use while learning documentation of care and other nursing skills. Computer literacy may be enhanced with integration of content and increased exposure to different information systems.
