The Use of Clinical Systems to Improve Outcomes and Efficiencies



Master of Science in Nursing, Walden University

NURS 6051N: Transforming Nursing and Healthcare Through Technology

, Introduction

Clinical information systems (CIS) are data collective systems designed for use in

healthcare by nurses, physicians, and other health professionals. With constantly emerging

technologies, new CIS have started to become more mainstream. The goal of introducing new

CIS is to improve both outcomes and efficiencies for patients and healthcare providers

(McGonigle & Mastrian, 2017). One example of an emerging CIS is the use of continuous

glucose monitoring (CGM), which is typically a small device inserted into subcutaneous tissue,

which can provide accurate blood glucose measurements every 5 minutes, without having to use

the traditional method of a finger stick (Boyce, 2020). These devices have become more popular

over the last 5 years with both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetics due to their convenience and

improvement in long-term glucose control. The purpose of this paper is to summarize four peer-

reviewed articles related to outcome and efficiency improvements with the use of CGM.

This article discusses the use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for pediatric

patients and their caregivers. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommends

strict glucose control in pediatric patients to prevent the possibility of adverse conditions

in adulthood; however, it can be difficult to patients and parents to attain these levels,

especially in school age children. For some pediatric patients, the typical lancet method

can be painful and undesirable, which can lead to noncompliance. With the use of CGM,

the use of lancets is decreased to once every 1-2 weeks. Regarding patient improvement
