General principles of Nursing Informatics

Nursing Informatics ANS: The specialty that integrates nursing science with multiple information and
analytical sciences to identify, define, manage, and communicate data, information, knowledge, and
wisdom in nursing practice.
o Nursing Informatics supports nurses, consumers, patients, the inter-professional healthcare team,
and all other stakeholders in their decision making in all roles and settings to achieve desired
outcomes.
o 2 Levels NI practice: generalists and informatics-nurse specialists.
Knowledge
Awareness and understanding of a set of information and ways that information can be made useful to
support specific task or arrive at a decision
Information that’s synthesized so that relationships are identified and formalized.
Processed information that helps to clarify or explain some portion in our environment or world that we
can use a as basis for action or upon which we can act.
Often affected by assumptions and central theories of a scientific discipline and is derived by discovering
patterns of relationships between different clusters of information.
Answers questions of “why” and “how”
Data – uninterpreted items, often referred to as data elements. An example might be a person’s weight.
Without additional data elements such as height, age, overall well-being it would be impossible to
interpret the significance of an individual number.
[2]
, Information – a group of data elements that have been organized and processed so that one can
interpret the significance of the data elements.
o For example, height, weight, age, and gender are data elements that can be used to calculate the
BMI. The BMI can be used to determine if the individual is underweight, overweight, normal
weight or obese.
Knowledge - is built on a formalization of the relationships and interrelationships between data and
information. A knowledge base makes it possible to understand that an individual may have a calculated
BMI that is over 30 and not be obese.
At this time, several automated decision support systems included a knowledge base and a set of rules for
applying the knowledge base in a specific situation.
o For example, the knowledge base may include the following information. A fever or elevated
temperature often begins with a chill. At the beginning of the chill the patient’s temperature may
be normal or even sub-normal but in 30 minutes it is likely the patient will have spiked a temp. A
rule might read: if a patient complains of chills, then take the patient’s temperature and repeat in
30 minutes.
Wisdom

actions.

implemented in healthcare practice.
Includes the ability to integrate data, information, and knowledge with professional values when
managing specific human problems.
The use of knowledge and experience to heighten common sense and insight so as to exercise sound
judgment in practical matters.
Thought to be the highest form of common sense, resulting from accumulated knowledge.
Ability to apply viable and valuable knowledge, experience, understanding, and insight while being
prudent and sensible.
