Development of Computerized Program for Nursing diagnosis and Intervention linked to Medical Diagnosis

의학진단과 연계된 간호진단 및 중재 프로그램 개발

Purpose: The actual nursing processes have been performed by individual nurses' judgment without any supporting programs in Korea. It is not easy for novice nurses to make accurate diagnoses and provide proper nursing interventions to patients. Therefore, we propose a computerized program for nursing diagnosis and intervention linked to medical diagnosis. Method: For the program, we have linked standardized nursing diagnosis and intervention classifications with medical diagnosis. It is premised that the program is connected to order communication system(OCS) in hospitals. Result: We provide a nursing information system with standardized database for nursing diagnosis and interventions so that nurses can make more accurate diagnosis and perform more adequate interventions. Conclusion: It is expected that the program will help the nurses perform their nursing processes more efficiently. And we expect the system can be used in many hospitals efficiently in the future after pilot operations are completed in some hospitals.
