Nursing Assessment

8.8K
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...

Nursing Evaluation

4.0K
The evaluation stage signals the end of the nursing process. The nurse gathers evaluative data to assess whether or not the patient has attained the expected results. Whereas the nurse collects data in the nursing assessment to identify the patient's health concerns, the evaluation stage data determines if the indicated health issues are resolved. Evaluative data collection includes two sections: the data acquired to evaluate patient outcomes and the time criteria for data collection.

Summary

The Score for Neonatal Acute Physiology II (SNAP-II) is a useful tool for assessing neonatal illness severity in nursing research. While data is accessible and reproducible, further refinement is needed for optimal clinical benchmarking.

Area of Science:

  • Neonatal Medicine
  • Nursing Research Methodology
  • Clinical Informatics

Background:

  • The Score for Neonatal Acute Physiology (SNAP) was developed in 1993 as a physiological-based illness severity tool.
  • Revisions include SNAP-II Perinatal Extension (SNAPPE-II) for mortality risk and SNAP-II for illness severity assessment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an overview of SNAP methodology.
  • To critically evaluate the feasibility and utility of SNAP-II in neonatal nursing research.

Main Methods:

  • Methodological review of the SNAP-II scoring system.
  • Evaluation of data accessibility from medical records.
  • Assessment of computational feasibility for error reduction and reproducibility.

Main Results:

  • SNAP-II is a parsimonious scoring measure with good results in medical research.
  • Data for SNAP-II is readily obtainable from medical records.
  • Computerized calculations enhance accuracy and reproducibility.

Conclusions:

  • SNAP-II demonstrates feasibility and utility in neonatal nursing research.
  • Limitations exist, necessitating further research for refinement.
  • Recommends using severity scores like SNAP-II for sample description, clinical benchmarking, and comparative research.
