NURS 6051 Discussion The Application of Data to Problem-Solving<\/h2>\n

Sample Answer for NURS 6051 Discussion The Application of Data to Problem-Solving Included After Question<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/h2>\n

I work at a children’s hospital in the outpatient setting of Rheumatology. \u00a0One thing that we do often is joint injections in swollen and inflamed joints such as the knee, ankle, elbow, wrists, and even fingers. \u00a0When I first started in the department about 7 years ago we did not utilize the ultrasound machine as much as we do now. \u00a0The physicians would just feel for the marker points of the joint and inject, hoping that they were in the joint space. \u00a0One of our physicians took a course in the ultrasound machine and found it to be beneficial in joint injections. \u00a0The ultrasound machine is now used in almost all of our joint injections. \u00a0The physician can use to US machine to pin point the joint and the fluid that is in the joint cavity. \u00a0They will then insert the needle for the injection, which you can see on the US so they know they are exactly where they are. Then they inject the medication, a white area forms in the joint cavity ( that is the medicine going in), now they know for sure the medication went where it needed to go. Through this we found that we had better responses to the injections because we knew that the injection was exactly where it needed to be, we also found that in some of the smaller joints we were using too much medication and it was leaking out of the joint cavity causing irritation and the patient to have increased pain.<\/p>\n

The healthcare sector continues to evolve in the application and use of technologies to support the delivery of care (Nagle, 2017). The use of the ultrasounds\u00a0machine\u00a0in my department is a prime example of this. \u00a0We are able to give better care to our patients\u00a0with\u00a0the use of\u00a0technology that we had but didn’t really start using until recently.<\/p>\n

In the modern era, there are few professions that do not to some extent rely on data. Stockbrokers rely on market data to advise clients on financial matters. Meteorologists rely on weather data to forecast weather conditions, while realtors rely on data to advise on the purchase and sale of property. In these and other cases, data not only helps solve problems, but adds to the practitioner\u2019s and the discipline\u2019s body of knowledge.<\/p>\n

Of course, the nursing profession also relies heavily on data. The field of nursing informatics aims to make sure nurses have access to the appropriate date to solve healthcare problems, make decisions in the interest of patients, and add to knowledge.<\/p>\n

In this Discussion, you will consider a scenario that would benefit from access to data and how such access could facilitate both problem-solving and knowledge formation.<\/p>\n
