1. NURSING INFORMATICS Theories, Models, and Frameworks

3. NURSING INFORMATICS Is an established and growing area of specialization in nursing All nurses employ information technologies in their practice.

5. “Computersare incredibly fast , accurate and stupid. Human beings are incredibly slow , inaccurate and brilliant . Together they are powerful beyond imagination” Albert Einstein

6. Why do we NEED to study N.I? In the 21st Century, information is doubling every 5yrs , if not tripling in quantity and quality. Information is POWER Technology also facilitates the creative process in nurses, affording amazing vehicles for patient education , teaching and learning , and providing general health promotion and prevention information on a global scale.

7. “THE HIGH TECH AND THE HIGH TOUCH” This can only become a common reality if nurses are comfortable working with computers and advanced technology while providing evidence based care for their clients . The healthcare of our clients is largely dependent on information. Every action taken depends on previous information and knowledge.

8. WHAT DO WE NEED TO ACHIEVE NURSING INFORMATICS?

10. “Nursing practice will be revolutionized and we will truly be a profession of nurses with our own classification systems, bibliographic systems, and payment systems .”

11. We need to think outside the box?

12. We need to use the Internet to enhance our practice and provide tele-nursing care . We need to become wireless and conduct our services using all the newer IT tools. “ We have a long way to go, but if we utilize information technology effectively, informatics will become an integral part of our profession and the health care industry. I do believe we have the knowledge and perseverance and I am convinced it will come to pass.”-Dr. Virginia Saba

Specialty that integrates nursing science, computer science, and information science in identifying, collecting, processing, and managing data and information to support nursing practice, administration, education, research and the expansion of nursing knowledge.

29. NURSING INFORMATICS 2001– ANA ..a specialty that integrates nursing science, computer science, and information science to manage and communicate data, information and knowledge in nursing practice…

30. NURSING INFORMATICS 2001– ANA ..facilitates the integration of data, information, and knowledge to support patients, nurses, and other providers in their decision-making in all roles and settings.

36. COMPUTERS IN NURSING PRACTICE Functions Records client information Provides access to other departments Used to manage client scheduling DOCUMENTAION OF CLIENT STATUS AND MEDICAL RECORDS KEEPING Provides access to standardized forms, policies and procedures Access data about client that may be somewhere in the medical record or elsewhere in health care agency.

38. BEDSIDE DATA ENTRY records clients assessments, medication administration, progress notes, care plan updating, client acuity and accrued charges COMPUTER BASED CLIENT RECORD EMRs/CPRs Provides easy retrieval of specific data such as trends in vital signs, immunization records, current problems It can be designed to work providers about conflicting medications or client parameters that indicate dangerous conditions

39. ELECTRONIC ACCESS TO CLIENTS Used extensively in health care to assess and monitor clients conditions Data accumulated from various electronic devices are stored for research purposes Can monitor client Computerized diagnosis Telemedicine PRACTICE MANAGEMENT Used to order supplies, tests, meals, and services, from other departments Allows nursing service to determine the most costly items used by a particular nursing unit. May provide information or decisions to modify budget, provide different staffing, move supplies to different locations, or make other changes for more efficient and higher quality care

41. COMPUTERS IN NURSING PRACTICE A. Human resources All employers must maintain a data a database on each employee Administrators can use this database to communicate with employees, examine staffing patterns, and create budget programs B. Medical records management Allow client records to be searched for trends, number of cases, most expensive cases, and client outcomes. Nurse informat icist can assist administrators with the design and implementation of systems that allow such searches to be generated, analyzed, printed, and distributed.

51. COMPONENTS of PRACTICE Transformation of Data to Wisdom Data – discrete entities that are described objectively without interpretation. ex. A systolic blood pressure, a nursing intervention, a patient problem, an outcome

52. COMPONENTS of PRACTICE Transformation of Data to Wisdom Information– reflects interpretation, organization, or structuring of data. - are processed data - data with meaning

53. COMPONENTS of PRACTICE Transformation of Data to Wisdom Knowledge–transformation of information. - information that is synthesized so that relationships are identified and formalized

54. COMPONENTS of PRACTICE Transformation of Data to Wisdom WISDOM–highest form of data transformation. - is the application of ethics in using knowledge.

55. COMPONENTS of PRACTICE Wisdom Knowledge Information Complexity Data Human Intellect

56. Group Activity

57. NURSING INFORMATICS COMPONENTS

58. CORRECT As an example, a single instance of vitals signs – heart rate, respirations, temperature and blood pressure – for a single patient can be considered a set of data.

59. CORRECT A series of vital signs taken over time, placed into a context, and compared is considered

60. CORRECT However, a dropping blood pressure, increasing heart rate, respiratory rate, and fever in an elderly, catheterized patient are recognized as being out of the norm. The recognition that this patient may be septic and in need of nursing and medical interventions reflects information synthesis (knowledge).
