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:

Nursing Implementation

Nursing Implementation

Implementation is the execution of the nursing care plan developed during the planning phase.
The five steps to implementing effective nursing care include reassessing the patient, reviewing and revising the existing nursing care plan, organizing the resources and care delivery, anticipating and preventing complications, and implementing nursing interventions.

The Mammary Glands

The Mammary Glands

The female breast is a hemispheric projection of variable size positioned anterior to the pectoralis major and serratus anterior muscles. A fascia layer composed of dense, irregular connective tissue connects it to these muscles.
Each breast features a pigmented projection known as the nipple, through which milk emerges via closely spaced openings of ducts, referred to as lactiferous ducts. Surrounding the nipple is a circular pigmented area of skin named the areola, which appears rough due to...

Area of Science:

Digital health interventions
Mobile health (mHealth) applications
Breastfeeding support

Background:

Global challenge in supporting sustained breastfeeding postpartum.
The established Milky Way Program effectively increases breastfeeding rates.
Mobile applications offer enhanced sustainability and accessibility for health interventions.

Observation:

Development of a mobile health application integrating the Milky Way Program.
Utilized Persuasive System Design principles with multidisciplinary stakeholders and end-users.
Employed a mixed-method approach for development and evaluation, including pilot testing with mothers.

Findings:

Pilot users reported the breastfeeding application as well-designed and user-friendly.
Participants found the application interactive, reassuring, and based on credible evidence.
The app successfully translated the clinical intervention into a digital format.

Implications:

Persuasive System Design and end-user engagement can guide the creation of usable mHealth apps.
This approach demonstrates feasibility for developing acceptable mobile breastfeeding support tools.
Further research is needed to confirm the app's effectiveness on breastfeeding initiation and duration.
