Nursing Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System

Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS)
A Nursing Clinical Information System (NCIS) is a specialized type of healthcare information system tailored to meet the unique needs of nursing practice. It incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to streamline information management and improve the quality of care delivery.
Critical attributes of NCIS include:

Integrated Healthcare System

Integrated Healthcare System

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

Tertiary Healthcare System

Tertiary Healthcare System

Specialized care provided over an extended period is called tertiary care. Usually, a primary or secondary care physician will refer a patient to tertiary care. A patient's maximum physical and mental function is restored in tertiary care, which is caused due to the impact of a chronic illness or condition. Tertiary care aims to achieve the highest level of functioning possible while managing chronic illness. For example, a patient who falls and fractures their hip will need secondary care to...

Health Information Technology and Healthcare Information System

Health Information Technology and Healthcare Information System

Health Information Technology (HIT)
Health Information Technology, commonly called HIT, integrates advanced information systems and technology in healthcare settings. Its primary functions include:

Hospitals-II

Hospitals-II

Hospitals provide inpatient and outpatient services. Inpatient services provide care to patients that stay in the hospital for an extended period, ranging from days to months. Examples of inpatient services include intensive care units, hospital wards, or surgeries. Outpatient services provide care to patients who come to a hospital for a diagnostic or treatment but do not stay overnight —for example, diagnostic tests, surgical procedures, or health education.
Nurses that work in hospitals have...

Area of Science:

Biomedical Engineering
Health Informatics
Logistics Management

Background:

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology is increasingly used in logistics for process optimization.
While RFID offers potential in clinical settings, current research often focuses on single applications.
A need exists for a more comprehensive and adaptable RFID-based platform in healthcare.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a smart object network serving as a generic platform for diverse clinical services.
To demonstrate the platform's utility through two distinct use cases: medical device tracking and transfusion safety.
To analyze the architecture, implementation challenges, and future prospects of such a clinical RFID platform.

Main Methods:

Development of a smart object network architecture leveraging RFID technology.
Implementation of the platform for two specific clinical scenarios: medical device tracking and transfusion safety.
Evaluation of the platform's performance, scalability, and integration capabilities.

Main Results:

Successful development of a generic smart object network platform for clinical applications.
Demonstrated feasibility of using the platform for both medical device tracking and transfusion safety.
Identified key architectural considerations and implementation challenges for clinical RFID systems.

Conclusions:

A unified smart object network platform can support multiple clinical services using RFID technology.
The developed platform offers a flexible and scalable solution for enhancing healthcare logistics and patient safety.
Further research and development are warranted to fully realize the potential of integrated RFID systems in clinical environments.
