The RFID is applicable to a small clinic as well as a large scale hospital. The tracking of the medical records through the RFID system is a revolution led by the Telemedicine and Advanced Technology Research Center. This is a unit with the U.S. Army Medical Research and Material Command. The Army wanted to improve their effectiveness in health-care delivery. So they researched the 3M Company and found that they had a solution to the problem that the military was having with keeping track of medical records.

In order to minimize the risk of project failure with respect to the Epic system implementation, the three specific strategies I would propose to the board are as follows: 1. Show commitment to the transformation by rolling out the system in clinical applications. Stanford Hospital and Clinics (SHC) had implemented a CPOE system, Carecast, in the late 1990s. This former system was implemented rapidly, without a significant amount of physician involvement in choosing the product or in designing the implementation, which resulted in a system that had many problems and was not well supported. Learning from these mistakes, SHC spent considerable time and effort forming a selection team and gaining consensus for its new EMR system, which resulted in Epic as a clear winner.
They recommend using clippers to remove hair before surgery, outside of the operating room, (IHI, 2013). A2a. Basis for Practice The basis for changing the procedure of shaving hair from the operative site is the result of several studies and research articles related to surgical site infections, (SSI). Recommendations have also been put out by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, (CDC) and the Joint Commission on Hospital Accreditations, (TJC). Other research methods were used from Cochrane Wound Group Specialized Register, The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Ovid MEDLINE, and Ovid EMBASE, (Tanner, Norrie, & Melen, 2011).
Electronic Health Records; Pros and Cons Desiree Steinbach Rasmussen Online Author Note This assignment is being submitted to Dr. Carol Patton’s NUR3508 Section 01 Quality and Safety in Nursing Practice - Summer 2012 Electronic Health Records; Pros and Cons Electronic Health Records (E.H.R.) first came into existence in 1967 at the University of Vermont and Utah’s Latter Day Saints Hospital. A physician named Lawrence Weed “described a system to automate and reorganize patient medical records to enhance their utilization and thereby lead to improved patient care” (Pinkerton, 2005, p.1). The E.H.R. has progressively been implemented into many aspects of the healthcare systems such as family practice, ambulatory surgery centers, pediatrics, urgent cares, and hospitals.
| UON Case Study | [Type the document subtitle] | | Executive Summary An examination of the UON stoma survey is presented to offer analysis of the survey results. This information is intended to help the UON board determine whether or not to redesign its website to better meet the needs of ostomy patients. An analysis of the demographic profile of the general ostomy population will ensure that UON is creating a website that will bring real value to this population of ostomy patients. Furthermore, UON is looking to differentiate their website from that of others, and not just be another “me too” website. By analyzing current ostomy patients habits regarding stoma information will make certain the proper information is being

By examining previous information on studies about multiple sclerosis, the author then continued to use the information as building blocks for his research and why it would be important to further study the areas he is inquiring about. The author uses a reference to establish the amount of people living with this phenomenon and then continues to cite information on how the variety of the disease affects different people saying why and how the experiment would be important. An overwhelming majority of the author’s references were older than five years (Approximately 22 of 23). The author did inform the reader about the limitations of the study by stating “candidates for this study were recruited by open recruitment to respect the free will of patients in participating,” while also informing how future studies could be done to help remedy these practices. Overall the study did not use references to as a central point since it was more of a background on how the author would continue to move forward and the literature review of the article was rather
Additionally, C-sections are dramatically increased in the U.S. and in the world. Moreover, the C-sections trend is guaranteed to continually to grown for numerous of reasons, regardless of the risks for the baby and mother. Having C-section deliveries, will impact the twenty-first century and the near future medical workplace. The medical groups and I will still been continually concerned with this C-section trend. Additionally, if the U.S and the world continue on the path on having babies through a C-section delivery; thus this will result in a rapid change in how babies are being born and ultimately eliminating natural birth process causing an epidemic toward childbirth.
