THE NURSING INFORMATICS IN

EUROPE

BABYGIRL M. MATIAS BSN
NURSING INFORMATICS IN EUROPE:
In Europe, as in many countries worldwide, the main rational for
implementing a greater use of information technology (IT) in
the healthcare sector to improve safety and quality, improve
patient outcomes, and at the same time try to reduce costs of
healthcare.The main mission in Europe is to establish stable
infrastructure that improves healthcare quality facilitates the
reduction of errors and the delivery of evidence based and cost
effective care.
IT in the European Union (EU):
The European commission (EC) is a driving force of healthcare
informatics development by funding projects that are all cross-
cultural involving healthcare professional users, educators and
administrators, always three or more countries participating.
Continuity of Care and Availability of Information:
This is supported by many projects aiming at making data
available in different settings including the patients home and
also by practicing telemedicine.
Electronic Patients Record:
Regulations emphasize that RNs have an autonomous
responsibility for planning, implementing, and evaluating
nursing care and that nursing diagnoses in the patient record is
the part of that responsibility.
Development of Common Terminology for Nursing Practice in
Europe:
The common factors that may have contributed are the
increasing cost constraints in the mostly publicity financed
healthcare systems, which have raised demands for cost-
effective care and quality improvement.
International Council of Nurses (ICN):
ICN has initiated the development of the ICNP, which has been
translated into at least 12 European languages and tested in
several countries.
Concept and Process Modeling:
The method of concept and information modeling has been
carried out in many countries during the last decenium. The
model was divided into three parts:
Core Process- which is the clinical process in
healthcare.
Management Process- which monitors and
evaluates the clinical process based on the mandatee
health care.
Communication Process- dealing with information
and interaction with the surrounding world as documents
or messages.
Implementation of IT in Healthcare:
The tradition of participatory design, when developing
applications, is created a tradition for user involvement and
participation that has impact not only on design, but also on
project management and implementation.
Organizational Implementation:
The organizational implementation is more about how the
application supports planed and wanted changes in work flow
and organizational structure.
Project management:
Project teams are mostly selected to be representatives of
different categories of clinicians and organizational parts of the
healthcare enterprise.
Clinical and Nursing Implementation:
Variety of views on data- appears to be a very attractive
advantage.
Structures of data- is important if data are to be reused and
presented in several different ways.
Decision support- is advantageous if the clinician enters the
data.
Supports of other data analysis- may prove an important
feature or quality control, quality improvement, and resource
management.
Electronic data exchange and sharing care support-
assumes reused of data.
Future Development:
Future development needed for nursing informatics in Europe is
implementation of decision support systems, integration of
research-based knowledge in patient records, and feedback of
clinical experience by aggregated data from patient records.
