Data Collection I01:30

Data Collection I

8.8K
Data collection gathers information needed to make accurate judgments about a patient's present condition. During a health history interview, subjective data is collected from the patient, their caregivers, or family members, and objective data is collected through observations and physical assessment. Patients are the primary source of subjective data. Thus information gathered from patients through interviews, observations, and physical examination is primary data. Secondary sources of...

Data Collection III

4.7K
The physical assessment examines the patient for objective data that defines the patient's condition, and aids in formulating the nursing care plan. The purpose of physical assessment is a health status appraisal, which includes identifying health problems, and establishing a database for nursing intervention.
The principles to begin the physical assessment include conducting a comprehensive or problem-related history in a quiet, well-lit room, emphasizing privacy and comfort for the...

Data Reporting and Recording

5.6K
Reporting and recording are crucial in data documentation. The timely, thorough, and accurate documentation of facts is essential when recording patient data. Failure to record findings during an assessment or interpretation of a problem will result in loss of information and make the patient document unreliable. The reader is left with general impressions if the information is not specific. A recording is documenting data of the individual's health information in a traceable, secure, and...

Data Collection II

10.4K
The nursing history captures and records the patient's health status, so that a care plan evolves to meet the patient's individual needs. The nursing health history is a part of the initial assessment. A comprehensive history covers all health dimensions and plays a significant role in the assessment process. A comprehensive history includes the patient's biographical information, reasons for seeking health care, expectations, present and past health history, medications, and...

Nursing Assessment01:29

Nursing Assessment

9.6K
The two sources for collecting information are primary and secondary. After gathering information, interpretation and validation help to complete the data. The purpose of assessment is to establish data with the initial information, to interpret data about the patient's perceived needs and health problems, and to respond to these problems identified.
The nurse collects all aspects of the patient's health in the initial assessment, establishing priorities for ongoing focused assessments...

Pulse rhythm01:30

Pulse rhythm

1.5K
Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac...

Area of Science:

  • Health informatics
  • Clinical research methodology
  • Public health data collection

Background:

  • Text messaging is widely adopted, offering a potential channel for data collection.
  • Diverse populations can be reached effectively through mobile technology.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of text message surveys in a clinical setting.
  • To identify strategies for minimizing participant attrition in text message surveys.

Main Methods:

  • A convenience sample of 461 individuals from a low-income primary care clinic participated.
  • Surveys included 17-30 health-related questions, both open- and closed-ended.
  • Descriptive and bivariate analyses assessed response rates and predictors of incomplete surveys.

Main Results:

  • 80% of participants completed the text message survey.
  • Smartphone users were more likely to complete the survey.
  • 84% of completers expressed willingness for future text message surveys.

Conclusions:

  • Text message surveys are a viable method for collecting real-time data in clinic-based, low-income populations.
  • Strategies to optimize response rates include minimizing survey length and allowing free-text responses.
