  • Use of Nursing Diagnosis in CA Nursing Schools
    USE OF NURSING DIAGNOSIS IN CALIFORNIA NURSING SCHOOLS AND HOSPITALS January 2018 Funded by generous support from the California Hospital Association (CHA) Copyright 2018 by HealthImpact. All rights reserved. HealthImpact 663 – 13th Street, Suite 300 Oakland, CA 94612 www.healthimpact.org USE OF NURSING DIAGNOSIS IN CALIFORNIA NURSING SCHOOLS AND HOSPITALS INTRODUCTION As part of the effort to define the value of nursing, a common language continues to arise as a central issue in understanding, communicating, and carrying out nursing's unique role in identifying and treating patient response to illness. The diagnostic process and evidence-based interventions developed and subsequently implemented by a practice discipline describe its unique contribution, scope of accountability, and value. The specific responsibility registered nurses (RN) have in assessing patient response to health and illness and determining evidence-based etiology is within the realm of nursing’s autonomous scope of practice, and is referred to as nursing diagnosis. It is an essential element of the nursing process and is followed by implementing specific interventions within nursing’s scope of practice, providing evidence that links professional practice to health outcomes. Conducting a comprehensive nursing assessment leading to the accurate identification of nursing diagnoses guides the development of the plan of care and specific interventions to be carried out. Assessing the patient’s response to health and illness encompasses a wide range of potential problems and actual concerns to be addressed, many of which may not arise from the medical diagnosis and provider orders alone, yet can impede recovery and impact health outcomes. Further, it is critically important to communicate those problems, potential vulnerabilities and related plans of care through broadly understood language unique to nursing.

  • Key Performance Indicators a Guide to Choosing, Developing and Using Kpis for Clinical Nurse/Midwife Specialists and Advanced Nurse/Midwife Practitioners
    DISCUSSION PAPER 3 Key Performance Indicators A Guide to Choosing, Developing and Using KPIs for Clinical Nurse/Midwife Specialists and Advanced Nurse/Midwife Practitioners DECEMBER 2010 KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS Introduction Development of healthcare in Ireland, including its structures and delivery of care, is driven by the safety and quality agenda that has become increasingly explicit in the last ten years (Department of Health and Children 2008). Nurses and midwives have contributed and continue to contribute to the enhancement of patient care and this contribution can be captured and articulated by focusing on their clinical outcomes. The National Council for the Professional Development of Nursing and Midwifery has provided focused guidance on measuring clinical outcomes in its discussion paper Clinical Outcomes (National Council 2010a). Building on that guidance, the present discussion paper has been developed as a resource for clinical nurse/midwife specialists (CNSs/CMSs) and advanced nurse/midwife practitioners (ANPs/AMPs) wishing to articulate and clarify their contribution to patient care. The need for this specialised guidance emerged from a recent evaluation of CNSs’/CMSs’ and ANPs’/AMPs’ clinical outcomes, and the final report on the evaluation contains a recommendation concerning the development of key performance indicators relevant to the roles of these nurses and midwives. The Evaluation of Clinical Nurse/Midwife Specialists and Advanced Nurse/Midwife Practitioners in Ireland Known as the SCAPE Project, the examination of CNSs’/CMSs’ and ANPs’/AMPs’ clinical outcomes involved the use of an extensive variety of research methods and date collection tools (Begley et al 2010). The study demonstrated that patient care provided by CNSs/CMSs and ANPs/AMPs improved patient outcomes, as well as being safe and cost-neutral.

  • Nursing Documentation in Clinical Practice
    From the Department of Nursing, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden Nursing Documentation in Clinical Practice Instrument development and evaluation of a comprehensive intervention programme Catrin Björvell Stockholm 2002 Nursing Documentation in Clinical Practice Instrument development and effects of a comprehensive education programme By: Catrin Björvell Cover layout: Tommy Säflund Printed at: ReproPrint AB, Stockholm ISBN 91-7349-297-3 NURSING DOCUMENTATION IN CLINICAL PRACTICE There is nothing more difficult to carry out, nor more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to handle than to initiate a new order of thing. Machiavelli, The Prince Nursing documentation in clinical practice Instrument development and evaluation of a comprehensive intervention programme Catrin Björvell, Department of Nursing, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden Abstract The purpose of this study was to describe and analyse effects of a two-year comprehensive intervention concerning nursing documentation in patient records when using the VIPS model - a model designed to structure nursing documentation. Registered Nurses (RNs) from three acute care hospital wards participated in a two-year intervention programme, in addition, a fourth ward was used for comparison. The intervention consisted of education about nursing documentation in accordance with the VIPS model and organisational changes. To evaluate effects of the intervention patient records (n=269) were audited on three occasions: before the intervention, immediately after the intervention and three years after the intervention. For this purpose, a patient record audit instrument, the Cat-ch-Ing, was constructed and tested. The instrument aims at measuring both quantitatively and qualitatively to what extent the content of the nursing process is documented in the patient record.

ONORI: Nursing Diagnoses in the Care of the Hospitalized Patient with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Pattern Analysis and Correlates of Health Disparities (Under the direction of Edward J. Halloran, RN, PhD, FAAN) This study examined the human needs of 445 adults admitted to hospital with the primary medical diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus [ICD-9CM 250.0-9] and compared the pattern of nursing diagnoses (human needs) with those of 5321 patients having Type 2 DM but admitted to hospital for other reasons and with the 78,480 inpatients with no DM. Length of hospital stay, intensive care unit use and discharge dispositions were examined, controlling for race, poverty, marital status and age, to determine if the nursing diagnosis variables were distinctive for any of the three patient groups. A subset of 14 nursing diagnoses was identified from the literature on the care of Type 2 DM to determine how they varied among the three groups. The 61 nursing diagnoses were also fitted in regression models to explain variances in patient length of stay and to explore patient diabetes status.

  • TELENURSE -Nursing Classifications, Quality Indicators and the Electronic Nursing Record
    Medical Informatics Europe '97 133 C. Pappas et al. (Eds.) IOS Press, 1997 TELENURSE -Nursing Classifications, Quality Indicators and the Electronic Nursing Record Hendrik D. Jorgensen and Tommy M. Nielsen, Kommunedata, The Centre for Health Information Services, Lautrupvang 3, DK-2750 Ballerup, Denmark Abstract. In the area of nursing, national and international clinical databases are practically non-existing. The lack of common nomenclatures and classifications is the main reason for this situation. This article elaborates on the TELENURSE project's two objectives which focus on improving that situation. The first objective concerns the "The International Classification for Nursing Practice" (ICNP) and methods for implementation of ICNP electronically in nursing modules of electronic patient records. The second objective concerns the development of a clinical nursing database in which clinical data collected from electronic nursing systems can be stored. On the basis of this data storage, nursing indicators can be developed, which in the long term allows for comparison of nursing interventions across Europe. 1. Introduction In the nursing community, there is considerable interest in recording nursing activities in a structured manner and in being able to use the structured data for assessment and comparison of the quality of nursing care provided at local, regional, national - and even international - levels. Due to the lack of internationally accepted nomenclatures and classifications, which provide a framework for suitably structuring nursing information, it has until now been very difficult to effectively satisfy this interest. Additionally, the limited use of electronic nursing records by nurses in their daily work makes the provision of structured and standardised nursing data almost impossible.

    CHAPTER 16 – Dependability of Nursing Informatics System CHAPTER 17- Nursing Minimum Data Set CHAPTER 18- Theories Models and Frameworks SUBMITTED BY: Cabanalan, Romar C. Ladjarani, Sandra H. Maulana, Dayang Almira H. Sharif Masdal, Sarah P. Musa, Shiedjian A. BSN-IIB SUBMITTED TO: Mr. Roderick P. Go Nursing Informatics Professor DATE SUBMITTED: May 10, 2013 CHAPTER 16 Dependability of Nursing Informatics System Dependable System is the measure of the reliability, integrity and performance of the system. It is defines as trustworthiness of a computing system which allows reliance to be justifiably placed on the service it delivers. It is the collective term used to describe the availability performance and its influencing factors: reliability performance, maintainability performance and maintenance support performance. In nursing informatics, dependability is the measure of the effectiveness of the health care delivery, quality of service and quality of care through the use of health information system. It encompasses the reliability, integrity, confidentiality and security of the data, information and the process. Factors that affects dependability of systems A. Error In the health care information system, it is the discrepancy between actual results and behavior from the expected or the reference condition or expected performance. In hospitals and clinics, data error or inaccuracy of the information is resulted when an incorrect reading is registered in the measuring equipment, the measuring device is malfunctioning unnoticeably, mishandling of data, incorrect reading of data (honest mistake), the computer system does not properly process the data, a potential bug is existing in the program, the data process by the computer program overflows, incorrect processing of tables and indexes, etc.
