Description

Informatics and Nursing: Opportunities and Challenges, 7th edition

Electronic health records, clinical databases and digital health data are the subject of Informatics and Nursing: Opportunities and Challenges, written by Kristi Sanborn Miller, PhD. The seventh edition covers cloud computing software and consumer informatics, and shows how digital health metrics affect patient safety, hospital workflow and evidence-based clinical decisions.

The book is structured around the competencies set out by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and the American Association of Critical-Care Nurses (AACN), so the content maps onto standards used in hospital settings.

Technology and data standards

The seventh edition adds coverage of healthcare interoperability, secure data sharing and telehealth applications, alongside a revised layout meant to make software and hardware topics faster to work through.
