Module 3 Flashcards
were developed to oversee the vital signs of the astronauts. By the 1970’s these monitors found their way into the hospital setting.
Physiological Monitors
Physiologic systems consist of 5 basic parts, what are these?
- SENSORS
- SIGNAL CONDITIONERS
- FILE TO RANK AND ORDER INFORMATION
- COMPUTER PROCESSOR
- EVALUATION OR CONTROLLING COMPONENT
Used to to analyze data and direct reports
COMPUTER PROCESSOR
used to regulate the equipment or alert the nurse
EVALUATION OR CONTROLLING COMPONENT
are usually built to incorporate both arrhythmia and hemodynamic monitoring capabilities
Physiologic monitors
The bolus must be injected within how many seconds?
4 seconds
is a noninvasive method of measuring oxygen saturation that also uses spectrophotometry. Light is emitted through a pulsatile arteriolar bed and then detected by photosensor.
Pulse Oximetry
Largest contributor to alarms in the ICU caused by:
- blood pressure cuff
- tourniquet
- air splint that may cause venous pulsations
- limits the sensors ability to distinguish between arterial or venous blood pressure while pulse oximetry
provides a measure of oxygen delivered to the tissue, mixed venous oxygen saturation provides a measure of the amount of oxygen used by the patient.
allows for the continuous monitoring of patients usually outside of the ICU.
Telemetry
This is susceptible to signal loss
Telemetry
This is a Computerized monitoring and analysis of cardiac rhythm that are reliable and effective and in detecting potentially lethal heart rhythms.
ARRHYTHMIA MONITORS
is a system designed to collect store, organize, retrieve, and manipulate all data related to care of the critically ill patient.
CRITICAL CARE INFORMATION SYSTEMS (CCIS)
Can facilitate the medication administration process Medication administration of flowsheets incorporate the use of bar code technology
Medication Management
• Focuses on the health information system of the community, it is centered on the majority part of the
public.
• Emphasizes the prevention of the disease, medical intervention and public awareness.
Community Health Applications
Are used to collect quantitative information about items in a population to establish certain information from the obtained data.
Health Statistical Surveys
focuses on patient safety and the quality of nursing care by applying
appropriate nursing interventions, such as identifying and clarifying patient needs, performing procedures, conducting health education, promoting patient advocacy, coordinating nursing and other health services, assisting the patient to navigate the health care system, and evaluating patient outcomes.
Ambulatory Care Systems
This holds such promise with early prototypes tagging victims with treatment and other
information.
radiofrequency identification (RFID)
RFID is also called?
geographic tagging of location (GTL)
This track victims as they move through the system from evacuation to treatment facilities
Longer range RFID
is a key capability of obtaining and maintaining situational awareness before and during a health emergency.
Biosurveillance
This is critical to save lives and improve incident outcomes, and the United States serves in a key role as part of a global surveillance network.
Rapid Detection
is the use of digital information and communication technologies, such as computers and mobile devices, to access health care services remotely and manage your health care.
Telehealth
These may be technologies you use from home or that your doctor uses to improve
or support health care services.
Telehealth
one of the earliest in the Philippines who adopted the telehealth in 1998.
University of the Philippines – Manila
Telehealth is also called as?
e-health or m-health (mobile health)
It is a multi-faceted public health disease surveillance system that provides public health officials the capabilities to monitor the occurrence and spread of diseases.
Philippine Integrated Disease Surveillance and Response (PIDSR).
