UNIT VI Flashcards
area of expertise within nursing that focus specifically with human responses to life-threatening problems
Critical Care Nursing
who are responsible to ensure that critically ill patients and seriously conditioned individuals receive optimal care.
areas where patients require complex assessment, high intensity medication, continuous therapy and interventions and unrelenting nursing attention and continuous watchfulness
Critical Care Applications
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 which can be processed to create a patient profile which generate real-time and historical reports on indicators including bed occupancy, delayed discharges, readmission rates and outcomes.
Critical Care Information System (CCIS)
What will become the important task of the Clinical Information System (CIS)
Automated collection and management of medical information
What is installed in the computer system which enables the user to have an access and use of the critical care information system
Example, the bedside monitoring system acquires data such as heartrate from the ECG, parameters from arterial and pulmonary arterial invasive blood pressures, temperatures, non-invasive blood pressures and arterial saturation and heart rate form pulse oximetry
Special software
It has built-in statistical information which prepares all the charting and statistical analysis and reporting system
Critical Care Information System (CCIS)
What are the common IT applications and functions found in critical care environment
a. Medical Information Bus (MIB)
b. Physiologic Monitoring System
Common IT applications and functions found in critical care environment:
- Provides a generalized method of attaching patient monitoring devices to a common interface.
- Used to classify the backbone of information exchange, allowing data to
be moved from one point to another.
Medical Information Bus (MIB)
Common IT applications and functions found in critical care environment:
- The platform integrates monitoring of the rectal temperature, electrocardiogram (ECG), respiration, oxygen saturation (SpO2), blood pressure and exhaled CO2 (EtCO2).
- Integrates multiple physiology parameters on one single small platform.
Physiologic Monitoring System
Common IT applications and functions found in critical care environment:
- The interface coverts the unique manufacturer data communications protocol into standardized hardware and software system.
- MIB system eliminates the need for custom connectors and software presently needed to interface such devices.
Medical Information Bus (MIB)
Common IT applications and functions found in critical care environment:
- MIB interface has the ability to “filter”, stone and select information sent for inclusion into clinical medical record on the clinical computer system.
- Infusion pumps, ventilators, pulse oximeter and other equipment are now transmitting clinical information for use in clinical data reporting and decision making.
Medical Information Bus (MIB)
Common IT applications and functions found in critical care environment:
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
- Collective term for the methodical application of information science and
technology to community and public health process - It emphasizes the prevention of disease, medical intervention and public
awareness
Community Health Information System
Encourages optimal application of computer system, computer programs and communication system for the benefit of majority of individuals, families and the community.
Community Health Information System
Focuses on the health information system of the community; it is centered on the majority part of the public. It focuses on the information about the majority of populations
Community Health Information System
Fulfils the 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 Information System
What Information System has these goals:
- Effective and timely assessment involves monitoring and tracking of health status of populations including identifying and controlling disease outbreaks epidemics.
- Develop a correlation and identify risk factors that contribute to health problems.
Community Health Information System
These services are performed at outpatient clinics, urgent care centers, emergency rooms, ambulatory or same-day surgery centers, diagnostic and imaging centers primary care centers community health centers, occupational health centers mental health clinics and group practices.
AMBULATORY CARE INFORMATION SYSTEMS
What Information System has these Primary focus:
- Preventing, identifying, investigating and eliminating communicable health problems.
- Accessibility of data and information, through communication
- Educating and empowering individuals to adopt health life style
- Facilitate the retrieval of data
- Effective transformation of data into information
- Effective integration of information to other disciplined to concretized
- knowledge and create better understanding
- Creation of computerized patient records, medical information system
- Central repositories of all data such as data warehouse
- Simple Graphical User Interface (GUI) for nurses and other healthcare provider, patient and consumer.
Community Health Information System
An experiment that involves the collection of measurement or observations about populations that are treated or controlled by the experimenter.
Computer Based Survey System
These are used to collect information about items in a population to establish certain information from the obtained data.
Computer Based Survey System
It covers a wide range of health care services that are provided for patients who are admitted overnight to a hospital
Ambulatory Care
With this system, the patient waiting is optimized through effective queue management. It only involves one-time registration require per visit. It facilitates the management of doctors’ schedules
AMBULATORY CARE INFORMATION SYSTEMS
It is used to enhance the emergency preparedness and response system, coupled and integrated to national health information system.
Community/National Electronic Disease Surveillance System
This system provides automated processing of data and information such as allergies and medical alerts patient accounting system such as charging, billing, discounts & concessions, claims, management doctor fees, registration management for booking of appointments, patient registration emergency management, other devices data types such as diagnostic reports related to laboratory, radiology and patient monitoring as well as providing decision support.
