Current Trends in Nursing II01:30

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,...
Nursing Implementation01:15

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.
Nursing Evaluation01:15

Nursing Evaluation

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.

Nursing Clinical Information System01:27

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:

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare technology innovation
  • Nursing workflow analysis
  • Human-robot interaction in clinical settings

Background:

  • Robotic technology offers potential for nursing assistance, but real-world healthcare complexities pose challenges.
  • Limited experiential evidence exists on the meaningful impact of robotics in nursing.
  • Collaborative development and usability studies are crucial for early problem identification in technology design.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically evaluate inpatient nurses' work systems and identify barriers to robotic technology integration.
  • To understand nursing tasks, workflow, and the healthcare setting through observational studies.
  • To identify integration barriers using the People, Environment, Tools, and Tasks (PETT) scan framework.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized the Systems Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety (SEIPS) PETT scan model for barrier identification.
  • Conducted observational studies of nursing staff across various hospital units (ED, ICU, PACU, med-surg).
  • Employed a 3-phase iterative data analysis process, including inductive content analysis and deductive organization into the PETT scan framework.

Main Results:

  • Identified 78 distinct barriers to integrating robotic and other healthcare technologies.
  • Summarized the identified barriers into 20 overarching themes with supporting subthemes and exemplars.
  • Observations revealed a broad set of challenges hindering technology adoption in clinical environments.

Conclusions:

  • Systematic observation and thematic synthesis offer insights into conditions affecting robotic integration.
  • Current robotic technologies are best suited for auxiliary roles; broader integration requires workflow alignment and robustness.
  • Future robotic integration depends on designs addressing clinical workflows, interoperability, ethical concerns, and organizational support.
