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:

Aneurysm management involves either conservative medical therapy or surgical intervention, depending on the size and symptoms of the aneurysm. Conservative management is generally reserved for smaller, asymptomatic aneurysms, while larger or symptomatic aneurysms often necessitate surgical repair.Conservative Medical TherapyFor small, asymptomatic aneurysms, particularly abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) less than 5.5 centimeters in diameter, conservative medical therapy is recommended.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Neurosurgery Training
  • Digital Health

Background:

  • Generalized medical curricula limit exposure to neurosurgery subspecialties.
  • Standardized teaching gaps hinder core learning outcomes in neurosurgery.
  • Social media (SoMe) offers supplementary learning opportunities for medical students.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To deliver case-based discussions (CbDs) via SoMe to address neurosurgery learning needs.
  • To evaluate the acceptability and effectiveness of SoMe-based CbDs in medical education.

Main Methods:

  • Nine CbDs on common neurosurgical conditions were hosted on Twitter.
  • Interactive tweets were sequentially posted to facilitate live discussions.
  • Participant demographics and feedback were collected.

Main Results:

  • 277 participants engaged across 9 CbDs, generating over 650,000 impressions.
  • Participants reported a 77% increase in knowledge post-CbD.
  • 99% of participants felt their expectations were met, with all willing to attend future sessions.

Conclusions:

  • Social media provides a feasible platform for live, text-based interactive case-based discussions.
  • SoMe-based CbDs are a valuable tool for undergraduate neurosurgery education.
  • This educational approach is adaptable to various medical and surgical fields.
