Manual data collection for the Nursing Minimum Data Set (NMDS) is time-consuming and costly. This study found that nursing diagnoses focused on comfort and mobility, with monitoring being the most frequent intervention.

Area of Science:

Nursing
Health Informatics

Background:

The Nursing Minimum Data Set (NMDS) is crucial for standardizing nursing data.
Collecting NMDS data manually presents significant challenges in terms of time and cost.

Purpose of the Study:

To describe discharge destinations, nursing diagnoses, interventions, and resource utilization for patients with fractured femur undergoing pinning.
To evaluate the feasibility and meaningfulness of collecting NMDS elements manually.

Main Methods:

Manual abstraction of NMDS elements from 188 medical records across eight acute care facilities in South Dakota.
Classification of nursing interventions using the Werley and Lang 16-category scheme.

Main Results:

The sample comprised older adults (mean age 78.5 years), predominantly female (69.1%).

Related Experiment Videos

Most patients (84.0%) were transferred post-discharge, primarily to extended care facilities (46.2%).

Common nursing diagnoses included comfort (89.9%) and physical mobility (59.6%). Monitoring/surveillance was the most frequent intervention type (16.7%), while emotional support was less frequent (3.0%). Discharge planning was common in care coordination (54.8%).

Nursing resource utilization was the most challenging NMDS element to collect due to variations in facility systems.

Conclusions:

Manual NMDS data collection is inefficient and expensive, suggesting a need for improved, automated methods.
Understanding nursing diagnoses and interventions for fractured femur patients highlights areas for targeted care.
Variability in facility-specific data collection hinders meaningful analysis of nursing resource utilization.
