Current Trends in Nursing II

Current Trends in Nursing II

Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System

The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.
Cost Containment
Payment for healthcare services has historically promoted adoption of costly and often unnecessary or inefficient...

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:

Non-equilibrium in the Cell

Non-equilibrium in the Cell

An important concept in studying metabolism and energy is that of chemical equilibrium. Most chemical reactions are reversible. They can proceed in both directions, releasing energy into their environment in one direction, and absorbing it from the environment in the other direction. The same is true for the chemical reactions involved in cell metabolism, such as the breaking down and building up of proteins into and from individual amino acids, respectively. Reactants within a closed system...

SBAR I: Understanding the Concept

SBAR I: Understanding the Concept

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...

Nurses' Legal Responsibilities II

Nurses' Legal Responsibilities II

Establishing a secure, collaborative nurse-patient relationship is crucial for delivering high-quality care. This relationship, founded on trust, respect, and honesty, enhances the patient's comfort and willingness to share vital health information. For example, a nurse who listens actively and without judgment provides clear information about health conditions and treatment options and respects patient decisions, which builds a trusting relationship.
Communication between nurses and...

Area of Science:

Healthcare technology
Artificial intelligence in medicine
Clinical informatics

Background:

Healthcare settings face significant workforce shortages, increasing the need for efficient solutions.
Artificial intelligence (AI) integration in healthcare offers potential to reduce non-clinical workload.
A nurse-led team initiated a pilot program to assess collaborative robots (cobots) in acute care.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the effectiveness of cobots in offloading repetitive, non-clinical tasks from hospital staff.
To determine if cobots can meaningfully augment nurses' patient care workflows.
To identify key factors for successful AI-powered cobot implementation in hospitals.

Main Methods:

A three-year, grant-funded pilot program involving collaborative robots (cobots) was launched in 2022.
The study focused on high-volume workflows within an acute care hospital setting.
The program involved a nurse-led team of leaders, researchers, and informaticians.

Main Results:

Cobots demonstrated operational value in specific high-volume, non-clinical tasks like medication and equipment delivery.
Current cobot technology was insufficient to significantly assist with complex, time-sensitive nursing patient care workflows.
The pilot highlighted the need for close collaboration between engineers, scientists, nurses, and frontline staff.

Conclusions:

AI-powered cobots can offer benefits in specific hospital logistics but require further development for clinical applications.
Close collaboration between technology developers and frontline healthcare staff is crucial for creating impactful AI solutions.
Healthcare leadership plays a vital role in fostering collaborations and removing organizational barriers for technology adoption.
