C468 INFORMATION MANAGEMENT
Information AND
Management and THE APPLICATION
the Application of Technology OF TECHNOLOGY
● Information Literacy: The ability to recognize when information is needed as well as the skills to find, evaluate and use needed
information effectively. How does info literacy support EBP in nursing? Nurse can use research and apply/consult
resources/peers/internet.
● Nursing informatics: an integration of nursing science, computer science, and information science. The unique combination of
sciences creates a blend that is greater than the sum of its parts.
● Information: Data that has been interpreted. How is info related to data? Info is data interpreted.
● Information science: This is the focus on how to gather, process and transform information into knowledge. It also incorporates
features from these 5 other sciences: communication science, computer science, social science, library science and cognitive
science.
● Using the EHR to document care of a patient with a femur fracture is an example of using the EHR in which way?—Information
System Decubitus ulcer can be documented in the EHR bc of-- Information System.
● Information Management: an elemental process within informatics where one can file, store, and manipulate data.
● Knowledge vs wisdom-- wisdom is knowledge that is applied in an appropriate manner.
● Common features of Health Info Systems: Comprehensive medical hx, unique way they function and provide info clinicians,
collects/processes/distributes data to manage and provide care.
● ROM used by computer when it’s turned on-- BIOS input/output (I/) system.
● Cognitive informatics: The study of the connection between the brains and minds way of collecting and processing info.
● Connectionism: the component of cognitive science that uses computer modeling through artificial neural networks to try to
explain human intellectual abilities.
● Ethics: a process of various ways of understanding and examining the moral life.
● Morals: a social convention about right and wrong human conduct that are so widely shared that they form a stable general
agreement.
● Principlism: a theoretical framework that emerged as a foundation for ethical decision making.
● Usability: the ease of learning a computer application, and other issues of human performance.
● The Metaparadigm: the key concepts of nurse, person, health and environment.
● Decision Support System: A rule based system that uses a knowledge base and a set of rules to make action recommendations.
● How can using simulation technology with your patients improve overall outcomes—By allowing them hands on practice and
immediate feedback of the skill being learned.
● Knowledge Workers: Nurses in this type of role are continuous learners, use technology to support and inform nursing
practice, and generate knowledge as a product. Information is a nurse’s primary resource.
● Experienced nurse know how to pull trends out of data. Data Mining: uses data applications and sifts through large amounts of
data and looks for previously hidden trends.
● Clinical practice guidelines can allow for the creation of nursing policies. They are also examples of clinical decision support
tool.
● Sees Flu Vacc due before DC to meet a clinical pathway--to promote desired outcomes.
● Nursing Informatics Specialist decided to ignore the personnel. Which barrier in implementing technology is this?-- Lack of
continued support.
● INCP: standardizing nursing terminology of nursing diagnoses, actions and outcomes.
● CPOE, barcode medication administration and clinical decision support are all examples of what?—Information Technologies
● What is the name used to process by which the physician or provider enters orders electronically into the system—CPOE
● A radio frequency identifier (RFID) is a type of technology that is used to identify and track supplied and medication within a
healthcare environment?—True
o Also used to track medical equipment and patient location
● Clinical pathways and computer generated care plans are examples of how information can affect nursing practice. –True
● Nursing Informatics: The use of technology and information to help support all aspects of nursing practice. Barcode scanning
for medication administration
● The Foundation of Knowledge Model: This is the basis for which knowledge is used to meet the needs of the healthcare
delivery system. It is derived from its 3 key elements of knowledge:
