Data Reporting and Recording01:24

Data Reporting and Recording

Reporting and recording are crucial in data documentation. The timely, thorough, and accurate documentation of facts is essential when recording patient data. Failure to record findings during an assessment or interpretation of a problem will result in loss of information and make the patient document unreliable. The reader is left with general impressions if the information is not specific. A recording is documenting data of the individual's health information in a traceable, secure, and...

Methods of Documentation VII: EMR

Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) primarily center around electronically documenting patients' health information within a single healthcare organization or practice. They contain essential clinical data related to a patient's medical history, diagnoses, medications, treatment plans, lab results, and other pertinent information relevant to the specific encounter or episode of care. EMRs are designed to streamline documentation and workflow processes within individual healthcare settings,...
Data Validation01:03

Data Validation

Data validation is an essential part of a comprehensive assessment. Validation is confirming or verifying and opening the door to gathering more assessment data as it clarifies vague or unclear data. The process of checking and verifying the collected information is called data validation. The primary purpose of data validation is to ensure data is as free from error, bias, and misinterpretation as possible.
Nursing assessment guides are generally based on holistic models rather than medical...
Data Collection I01:30

Data Collection I

Data collection gathers information needed to make accurate judgments about a patient's present condition. During a health history interview, subjective data is collected from the patient, their caregivers, or family members, and objective data is collected through observations and physical assessment. Patients are the primary source of subjective data. Thus information gathered from patients through interviews, observations, and physical examination is primary data. Secondary sources of data...
Methods of Documentation V: CBE01:23

Methods of Documentation V: CBE

Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...
International Nursing Organizations II01:28

International Nursing Organizations II

The World Health Organization (WHO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations based in Geneva. The WHO has many initiatives that center around health. Primarily, they lead global efforts to expand universal health coverage using science-based policies and programs. They are also responsible for shaping health research agendas and developing norms and standards.
The WHO provides expert team support, including funding, vaccines, testing, and treatment tools at the country level to fight...

Area of Science:

  • Maternal Health Research
  • Data Standardization
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Common Data Elements (CDEs) are essential for consistent data collection and research collaboration.
  • Maternal health research requires standardized data to improve study outcomes.
  • Existing data collection methods lack uniformity, hindering comprehensive analysis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a minimum set of priority CDEs for maternal health research.
  • To establish standardized measures for key constructs in maternal health.
  • To enhance data quality and interoperability in maternal health studies.

Main Methods:

  • Convened a panel of experts from research centers, professional associations, and government agencies.
  • Conducted a landscape analysis to identify commonly measured constructs in maternal health research.
  • Utilized a modified Delphi technique for construct prioritization and CDE candidate evaluation.

Main Results:

  • Prioritized 36 biomedical and 22 psychosocial constructs for standardization.
  • Identified 204 CDE candidates through literature review (89 biomedical, 115 psychosocial).
  • Endorsed expert-recommended CDEs for maternal health conditions, outcomes, care, history, behavioral health, social factors, and demographics.

Conclusions:

  • Developed recommendations for harmonizing data collection through a consensus process.
  • The proposed CDEs aim to improve data quality and interoperability.
  • These CDEs will facilitate information synthesis and advance maternal health science.
