CLASSROOM TECHNOLOGY

 2010 - they began recruiting other nursing

 1977 – the first Nursing Information System
Conference was held in the United States
 Here nurses adapts computer processes to
enhance client care, education, administration
and management, and nursing research
informatics specialists and practitioners to organize
a group which later became as the Philippine
Nursing Informatics ,a sub-specialty organization of
PNA for nursing informatics.
FRAMEWORK OF NURSING INFORMATICS

 October 1995 – the first ANA certification
examination in Nursing Informatics was given.
 This creates the Nurse Informaticists
They are responsible for interfacing between
the client care and information technology
departments and assisting with the development,
implementation and evaluation of initiatives in
clinical information system.
 Data – discrete entities that are described
objectively without interpretation
 Information – as data, however is interpreted,
organized or structured
 Knowledge – as information that has been
synthesized so that interrelationships are
identified and formalized this results to DECISIONS
that guides Practice.

 1999 – a study was form to identify International

Standards for health information and their adaptability
in the Philippines referred to as
“Standards of Health Information in the Philippines
,1999 ver. (SHIP99).

 2003 - Master of Science in Health Informatics was

proposed to be offered by UP-Manila College of
Medicine (major in medical informatics) and the
College of Arts and Science (major in bioinformatics)
and was later approved to be offered starting
academic year 2005-2006. COMPUTER SYSTEM

 2008 – Nursing Informatics course in the  Hospital Information System
undergraduate curriculum was defined by the
Commission on Higher Education (CHED)
Memorandum Order 5 Series of 2008, later
revised and included as Health Informatics course
in CHED Memorandum Order 14 Series of 2009,
and first implemented in the summer of 2010.
 MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM (MIS)

 Designed to facilitate the structure and application

of data used to manage an organization or
department.
 Analyses used for strategic
planning, decision making and evaluation of
management activities.

HOSPITAL INFORMATION SYSTEM (HIS)

 An MIS that focus on the types of data needed to

manage client care activities and health care
organization.
 Provides people with the data they need to
determine appropriate actions and control them.

SCOPE OF NURSING INFORMATICS

 P- Practice
 Computer-Based Client Records
 E- Education
Electronic Medical Records (EMR) / Computer Based
 R- Research
Patient Records (CPRs) - permits electronic client data
 A- Administration
entry and retrieval by caregivers, administrators,
NURSING INORMATICS & PRACTICE accreditors, and other persons who require the data.

 Electronic Medical Records (EMR) / Computer

 Nurses are expected to have knowledge about the
Based Patient Records (CPRs)’s way of improving
benefits and limitations of technology for
healthcare:
communication and decision making, and attitudes
 Constant availability of client health
needed to value technology and use informatics to
information across the lifespan
both support and protect clients. (Cronenwett et al.
 Ability to monitor quality
2007)
 Access to stored data
 Ability of the clients to share in knowledge and
DOCUMENTATION AND MEDICAL RECORD KEEPING activities influencing their own health

 Bedside Data Entry - These allows recording of

client assessments, medication administration,
progress notes, care plan updating, client acuity,
and accrued charges.
 The terminals can be fixed or handheld, and
hardwired to the central system or wireless with
the ability to transmit the data to distant sites.
 POINT-OF-CARE / POINT-OF-SERVICE COMPUTER
 terminal is near, but not necessarily at, the client.

records by nurses and other health care professionals

 Computer-Based Client Records Personal Health

Record (PHR) - The client’s personal, and health
information but is controlled by the client, rather than
the health care provider.
 Information individual that conforms to nationally
recognized interoperability standards and that can be
drawn from multiple sources while being managed ,
shared , and controlled by the individual.

ELECTRONIC ACCESS TO CLIENT DATA

 Client Monitoring and Computerized Diagnostics -

these devices, with their minute but powerful computer
chips, makes it possible to extend the nurses’
observations and provide valid and reliable data

 Telemedicine / Telehealth - uses technology to transmit

electronic data about clients to persons at
distant locations.
 Clinical Decision Support System - are electronic
forms of charts, templates, algorithms , and the likes,
which incorporate evidence from the literature into a
particular client in order to guide care planning .
 some are simple alarms that appear when medical
orders conflict with another aspect of client’s situation
( allergies, contraindications)
