Computerized clinical nursing data bases (CCNDBs) offer valuable research data. This article outlines strategies for accessing, assessing, and analyzing CCNDB data for nursing research, ensuring data quality and privacy.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing Informatics
  • Health Services Research
  • Data Science in Healthcare

Background:

  • Computerized clinical nursing data bases (CCNDBs) are increasingly recognized for their research potential.
  • Nurse-managed practice sites highlight the need to leverage nursing data for practice-relevant questions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a strategic framework for utilizing CCNDBs in nursing research.
  • To address the unique considerations of using clinical data for research purposes.

Main Methods:

  • The article details a three-phase approach: (1) locating and accessing CCNDBs, (2) assessing data content and quality, and (3) extracting and analyzing data.
  • Phase 1 involves defining research questions, identifying databases, negotiating access, and ensuring privacy.
  • Phase 2 focuses on evaluating database content, data quality, and technical usability.
