Module 3 Flashcards
These were developed to oversee the vital signs of the astronauts.
Physiological monitors
What are the 5 basic parts of Physiological Monitors?
Sensors
Signal Conditioners
File to rank and order information
Computer processor
Evaluation or controlling component
Focuses on the health information system of the community, it is centered on the majority part of the
public.
Community Health Applications
Emphasizes the prevention of the disease, medical intervention and public awareness.
Community Health Applications
Fulfills a unique role in the community, promoting and protecting the health of the community at the same
time maintaining sustainability and integrity of health data and information.
Community Health Applications
Encourages optimal application of computer system, computer programs and communication system for the benefit of majority of individuals, families and community.
Community Health Application System
What is the goal of Community Health Informatics
Effective and timely assessment that involves monitoring and tracking the health status of populations including identifying and controlling disease outbreaks and epidemics.
Are used to collect quantitative information about items in a population to establish certain information
from the obtained data.
Health Statistical Surveys
Handle the amplification, conditioning, and digitization of small amplitude physiological signals.
microprocessor
Analyze information, store data in specific locations, and control reporting direction.
Microprocessor
Alert nursing personnel through reports, alarms, or visual notices.
Microprocessor
A method used for measuring cardiac output.
Thermodilution technique
A critical piece of hemodynamic information involves the availability of oxygen to bodily tissues.
Pulse oximetry
standard for measurement of blood’s oxygen saturation
Co-oximetry
is a noninvasive method of measuring oxygen saturation that also uses spectrophotometry.
Pulse oximetry
allows for the continuous monitoring of patients usually outside of the ICU
Telemetry
It is susceptible to signal loss
Telemetry
Computerized monitoring and analysis of cardiac rhythm for detecting potentially lethal heart rhythms.
Arrhythmia monitors
It has the ability to detect ventricular fibrillation and respond with an alarm
Arrhythmia Monitors
Criteria for a normal ECG are programmed into the computer.
Detection system
Analyzes the ECG complex for five parameters:
- Location of QRS complex
- Time from the beginning to the end of the QRS
- Comparison of amplitude, duration, and rate of QRS complex with all limb leads
- P and T waves
- Comparison of P and T waves with all limb leads
Interpretive System
A system designed to collect, store, organize, retrieve, and manipulate all data related to the care of critically ill patients.
Critical Care Information Systems
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.
