"With accompanying software! "
Clinicians manage a lot of data - on assorted bits of paper and
in their heads. This book is about better ways to manage and
understand large amounts of clinical data. Following on from his
ground breaking book, "Evaluating the Processes of Neonatal
Intensive Care," Joseph Schulman has produced this eminently
readable guide to patient data analysis. He demystifies the
technical methodology to make this crucial aspect of good clinical
practice understandable and usable for all health care
workers.
Computer technology has been relatively slow to transform the
daily work of health care, the way it has transformed other
professions that work with large amounts of data. Each day, we do
our work as we did it the day before, even though current
technology offers much better ways.
Here are much better ways to document and learn from the daily
work of clinical care. Here are the principles of data management
and analysis and detailed examples of how to implement them using
computer technology.
To show you that the knowledge is scalable and useful, and to
get you off to a running start, the book includes a complete point
of care database software application tailored to the neonatal
intensive care unit (NICU).
With examples from the NICU and the pediatric ward, this book is
aimed specifically at the neonatal and pediatric teams. The
accompanying software can be downloaded on to your system or PDA,
so that continual record assessment becomes second nature - a skill
that will immeasurably improve practice and outcomes for all your
patients.
