6
Critical Events in YOUR Nursing Life zThink of an incident during the last 4 days in which you fulfilled nursing’s social role yBe as explicit as possible - time of day, who involved, how you felt zNow -- identify three points in this incident at which information or communication was important zCould you get what you wanted? Express what you had to say? Know what you needed to know?
7
Informatics needed to support Nursing’s Social Role zIdentify & describe phenomena indicative of the human response y INFORMATICS NEED: Produce a language zDiscover & evaluate therapeutic interventions to treat human responses y INFORMATICS NEED: Create therapeutics Record interventions, Monitor responses zCollaborate with other disciplines to fulfill health care goals yINFORMATICS NEED: Communicate
8
Information Technology today zPromises almost met yComputer-based patient records xDataRepositories xFormal languages yTelemedicine xRemote access to expertise and consultation xConsumer Health Informatics zThe Challenges ySecurity yAuthentication yThe digital Divide yLegacy systems
10
Moving the site of care
11
On the horizon... Integration of different data types, with particular emphasis on time-variant data Intelligent agents and meta-data that support efficient use of knowledge resources (text, images, sound) Merging of public health and personal health data Re-engineering of clinical practice to capitalize on informatics advances
12
Promising (ie, not yet here) IT Applications zDistributed records management systems yW3EMRs and CareWeb: Web front-end to legacy information systems zAuthentication and Authorization yHealtheon zConsumer Health Informatics yCareLink yCHESS yHeartCare
13
HeartCare: Meeting the Challenges of CABG Recovery zMonitor, Manage, Mend, Motivate zDemands in the discharge encounter zPatient-centered, tailored information
14
HeartCare Evaluation Plan zRandomized Field Evaluation y6 Months experimental period y140 adults recovering from CABG surgery zThree Groups yHeartCare: WWW-based recovery support yCHIP, An Audiotape Intervention yUsual Care
15
The HeartCare Intervention zHome-based Unit: yWebTV(C) box & 19” television zServer supplies: xMonitor & Recovery Information Four periods: Wks 1-2, 3-6, 7-12, & 13-26 xProfessional & Peer contact
16

31
Nursing Roles zContent Expert zEnvision a clinical practice that makes use of the patient as a resource zRe-organize care and care activities to incorporate patients
32
Constructing a Health Care Delivery System responsive to SMART Patients rests on effective, appropriate IT!
33
Critical Event, Take II zRecall the event identified earlier yReview the information intensive and communication sensitive elements zCircle those for which today’s presentation suggested a solution zStar one for action on Monday zList at least one IT-related aspect zList at least one System Level aspect zList at least one clinical aspect
34
Patient-Centered Systems zClinical Records z Network Communication zConsumer Health Informatics
35
Clinic Hospital Physician Office Pharmacy Furtive Records Dentist Patient-Centered Information Systems
36
Seen any ‘SMART’ patients lately?...they’re there, everywhere!
