  • Title: Using an integrated point of care system: a nursing perspective.
    Author: Wilson D, Nelson NC, Rosebrock BJ, Hujcs MT, Wilner DG, Buxton RB.
    Journal: Top Health Inf Manage; 1994 May; 14(4):24-9. PubMed ID: 10134757.
    Abstract:
    Nurses at LDS Hospital, Salt Lake City, Utah, have had the ability to document patient data and nursing care on a bedside computer for over nine years. This ability has had numerous ramifications for the medical record, nursing practice, and clinical decision making. This article is an effort to describe how and why certain decisions were made, the implications of these decisions, mistakes that were made and their solutions, and the tremendous impact on clinical decision making and improved patient outcomes that is only beginning to be realized by computerization of the medical record.
