Abstract:
Personal digital assistants (PDAs) are attaining increased functionality by acute care nurse practitioners (ACNPs). Supplemented by recently developed medical software, these devices assist nurse practitioners in having information available at the point of care. This article reviews the introductory use of PDAs throughout ACNP graduate training with an emphasis on clinical and classroom application.
