1-2 Reflection Journal: Information Management

In this journal assignment, reflect on your learning this week, identifying the role information management plays on improving patient care technologies.In addition, reflect on the forces that are driving healthcare toward the increased use of healthcare information technologies in patient care. Are there also forces resisting this progression? What challenges are we facing in healthcare as a result of the growing use of health information technology?Attached below is a lecture to be used to help answer questions above.

Discussion: Interaction Between Nurse Informaticists and Other Specialists

Nature offers many examples of specialization and collaboration. Ant colonies and bee hives are but two examples of nature’s sophisticated organizations. Each thrives because their members specialize by tasks, divide labor, and collaborate to ensure food, safety, and general well-being of the colony or hive.Of course, humans don’t fare too badly in this regard either. And healthcare is a great example. As specialists in the collection, access, and application of data, nurse informaticists collaborate with specialists on a regular basis to ensure that appropriate data is available to make decisions and take actions to ensure the general well-being of patients.In this Discussion, you will reflect on your own observations of and/or experiences with informaticist collaboration. You will also propose strategies for how these collaborative experiences might be improved.To Prepare:Review the Resources and reflect on the evolution of nursing informatics from a science to a nursing specialty.Consider your experiences with nurse Informaticists or technology specialists within your healthcare organization.By Day 3 of Week 3Post a description of experiences or observations about how nurse informaticists and/or data or technology specialists interact with other professionals within your healthcare organization. Suggest at least one strategy on how these interactions might be improved. Be specific and provide examples. Then, explain the impact you believe the continued evolution of nursing informatics as a specialty and/or the continued emergence of new technologies might have on professional interactions.

Discussion: The role of RN/APRN in policy Evaluation

In the Module 4 Discussion, you considered how professional nurses can become involved in policy-making. A critical component of any policy design is evaluation of the results. How comfortable are you with the thought of becoming involved with such matters?Some nurses may be hesitant to get involved with policy evaluation. The preference may be to focus on the care and well-being of their patients; some nurses may feel ill-equipped to enter the realm of policy and political activities. However, as you have examined previously, who better to advocate for patients and effective programs and polices than nurses? Already patient advocates in interactions with doctors and leadership, why not with government and regulatory agencies?In this Discussion, you will reflect on the role of professional nurses in policy evaluation.To Prepare:In the Module 4 Discussion, you considered how professional nurses can become involved in policy-making.Review the Resources and reflect on the role of professional nurses in policy evaluation.Post an explanation of at least two opportunities that currently exist for RNs and APRNs to actively participate inpolicy review. Explain some of the challenges that these opportunities may present and describe how you might overcome these challenges. Finally, recommend two strategies you might make to better advocate for or communicate the existence of these opportunities. Be specific and provide examples.4 to 4 References

case study 13

Case Study, Chapter 13, Fluid and Electrolytes: Balance and Disturbance1. Mrs. Dean is 75-year-old woman admitted to the hospital for a small bowel obstruction. Her medical history includes hypertension. Mrs. Dean is NPO. She has a nasogastric (NG) tube to low continuous suction. She has an IV of 0.9% NS at 83 mL/hr. Current medications include furosemide 20 mg daily and hydromorphone 0.2 mg every 4 hours, as needed for pain. The morning electrolytes reveal serum potassium of 3.2 mEq/L.What are possible causes of a low potassium level?What action should the nurse take in relation to the serum potassium level?What clinical manifestations might the nurse assess in Mrs. Dean?2. Conrad Jackson is a 28-year-old man who presents to the emergency department with severe fatigue and dehydration secondary to a 4-day history of vomiting. During the interview, he describes attending a family reunion and states that perhaps he “ate something bad.” Upon admission his vital signs are a temperature of 102.7°F, heart rate of 116 bpm, respiratory rate of 18 breaths/min, and blood pressure of 86/54 mm Hg. The nurse also notes the patient has dry mucous membranes and tenting of skin. The physician orders an IV to be started with 0.45% normal saline, and orders a serum electrolytes and an arterial blood gas.The following results are returned from the laboratory:Sodium (Na+)             150Potassium (K+)           5.5Chloride (Cl¯)             110BUN                           42Creatinine                    0.8Glucose                       86pH                               7.32PaCO2                         35HCO3¯                        20PaO2                            90O2 Sat                          98%What is your interpretation of this arterial blood gas sample?Explain the high potassium in this patient.Calculate the patient’s anion gap:What is the interpretation of this anion gap?
