Nursing Informatics Flashcards
It is the area of expertise within nursing that focus specifically with human responses to life-threatening problems.
Critical Care Nursing
Who is responsible to ensure that critically ill patients and seriously conditioned individuals receive optimal care?
Critical Care Nurse/Staff
What do you call the areas where patients require complex assessment, high intensity medication, continuous therapy and interventions and unrelenting nursing attention and continuous watchfulness?
Critical Care Applications
What are the different special area of critical care application?
ICUs, PICUs, NICUs, Cardiac Care Units,
Cardiac Catheter Labs, Telemetry Units, Progressive Care Units, Emergency Departments and Recovery Rooms.
Critical care nurses work in a wide variety of applications:
bedside care clinicians, educators, guidance, researchers, report managers, advocate, specialists and practitioners.
A system designed to collect, store, organize, retrieve and manipulate data related to care of the critically ill patient.
Critical Care Information System (CCIS)
Provides real-time resource utilization of data and management of information and access critical care areas through the integration of the medical facilities in the critical care or intensive care unit to an intelligent computer system which is capable of processing all of these data
Critical Care Information System (CCIS)
Enables the electronic collection of hospital and patient-specific critical care data of the entire patient in the critical care areas
CCIS
One of its important task is Automated collection and management of medical information
CCIS
This is installed in the computer system which enables the user to have an access and use of the critical care information system?
Special Software
This system has built-in statistical information which prepares all the charting and statistical analysis and reporting system.
CCIS
What are the advantages of Critical Care Information System?
PICOP-PQ
Provides clinical decision support system.
Intelligently integrates and process physiologic and diagnostic information and store it to secured clinical repository.
Create trends analysis with graphical presentation of results.
Offline simulation can be performed to test the condition of the patients
Provide access to vital patient information.
Providing feedback and
quick evaluation of patient’s condition and provides alert.
Give the Information Technology Capabilities and Applications in Critical Care Settings
Process, store and integrate physiologic and diagnostic information from various
system.
Present deviations from pre-set ranges by an alarm or an alert.
Accept and store patient care documentation in a lifetime clinical repository.
Trend data in a graphical presentation
Provide clinical decisions support through alerts, alarms and protocols.
Provide access to vital patient information from any location, both inside and
outside of the critical care setting.
Comparatively evaluate patients for outcomes analysis.
Present clinical data based on concept-oriented view. (Organize data by patient
problem or by system).
What are the Information Technology Applications and Functions in Critical Care Environment?
Medical Information Bus (MIB)
Physiologic Monitoring System
Provides a generalized method of attaching patient monitoring devices to a common interface.
MIB
Used to classify the backbone of information exchange, allowing data to be moved from one point to another.
MIB
It has the ability to “filter”, stone and select information sent for inclusion into clinical medical record on the clinical computer system.
MIB
This Integrates multiple physiology parameters on one single small platform.
Physiologic Monitoring System
What platform integrates monitoring of the rectal temperature, electrocardiogram (ECG), respiration, oxygen saturation (SpO2), blood pressure and exhaled CO2 (EtCO2)
Physiologic Monitoring System
It Features a real-time display which provides numeric values as well as waveforms that can be customized by the user. Multiple signals can be displayed on each of the three graphs.
Physiologic Monitoring System
It is a Collective term for the methodical application of information science and technology to community and public health process.
