Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-I01:21

Interdisciplinary Care: The Health Care Team-I

1.6K
An interdisciplinary team includes many healthcare professionals working together and utilizing their skills, knowledge, and expertise to provide holistic and quality patient care.
Physicians
The physician's primary responsibility is to diagnose illness and direct the medical or surgical treatment of the condition. The authority to admit patients to a healthcare agency or institution and practice care within that setting is granted to physicians by the healthcare agency or institution...

SBAR I: Understanding the Concept

4.3K
Effective communication among healthcare professionals during hand-off reporting is essential to delivering safe and continuous patient care. Common professional interactions include reports to healthcare team members, hand-off, and transfer reports. Nurses routinely report information to other healthcare team members and also urgently contact healthcare providers to report changes in patient status.
Standardized methods of communication have been developed to ensure that information is...

Patient-centered Care01:13

Patient-centered Care

1.9K
Patient-centered care involves delivering care beyond inpatient hospitalization. Reflective practice can enhance a patient-centered approach. Reflective practice is a process of reasoning that considers all aspects of the present situation, including practicalities, learning from personal practice, and consideration of patient needs. Patients appreciate care decisions made while considering their input. Involving the patient in their care provides the patient with a sense of contribution rather...

Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

556
The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic...

Area of Science:

  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
  • Health Communication

Background:

  • Embodied conversational agents (ECAs) simulate human-like interactions, offering potential for empathic patient engagement.
  • ECAs can facilitate shared decision-making (SDM) by improving patient-provider communication.
  • Existing evidence on ECA development and application in SDM requires systematic synthesis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a scoping review to identify and present evidence on ECAs for promoting SDM.
  • To analyze key features of ECAs, including appearance, dialogue mechanisms, and emotional models.
  • To examine the implementation and evaluation of ECAs in clinical settings.

Main Methods:

  • Employing the Arksey and O'Malley framework for the scoping review.
  • Systematic retrieval of literature from seven major databases (PubMed, EMBASE, PsycINFO, Web of Science, CINAHL, IEEE Xplore, ACM Digital Library).
  • Independent literature screening and data extraction by two researchers, with results presented via narrative abstracts, tables, and figures.

Main Results:

  • This section will present the findings of the scoping review once data extraction is complete.
  • The review will identify trends in ECA design, application, and effectiveness in SDM.
  • Key themes regarding implementation challenges and facilitators in clinical settings will be highlighted.

Conclusions:

  • This review will provide a comprehensive overview of the current evidence base for ECAs in SDM.
  • Findings will inform future research and development of ECAs to enhance patient engagement and shared decision-making.
  • The study aims to guide the effective integration of ECAs into clinical practice to support SDM.
