Proposal and Annotated Bibliography on Technology In Nursing

Write a 4-6 page annotated bibliography where you identify peer-reviewed publications that promote the use of a selected technology to enhance quality and safety standards in nursing.

Introduction
This assessment will give you the opportunity to deepen your knowledge of how technology can enhance quality and safety standards in nursing. You will prepare an annotated bibliography on technology in nursing. A well-prepared annotated bibliography is a comprehensive commentary on the content of scholarly publications and other sources of evidence about a selected nursing-related technology. A bibliography of this type provides a vehicle for workplace discussion to address gaps in nursing practice and to improve patient care outcomes. As nurses become more accountable in their practice, they are being called upon to expand their role of caregiver and advocate to include fostering research and scholarship to advance nursing practice. An annotated bibliography stimulates innovative thinking to find solutions and approaches to effectively and efficiently address these issues. Get professional assignment writing service now!
Professional Context
Rapid changes in information technology go hand-in-hand with progress in quality health care delivery, nursing practice, and interdisciplinary team collaboration. Technology is essential to the advancement of the nursing profession, maintaining quality care outcomes, patient safety, and research.
Preparation
Before you begin to develop the assessment, you are encouraged to complete the Annotated Bibliography Formative Assessment and select a Sentinel-U simulation to complete for practice. Completing these activities will help you succeed with the assessment. The Annotated Bibliography Formative Assessment will count towards engagement.
To successfully complete this assessment, perform the following preparatory activities:
• Before you begin to develop the assessment, you are encouraged to complete the Annotated Bibliography Formative Assessment and select a Sentinel-U simulation to complete for practice. Completing these activities will help you succeed with the assessment. The Annotated Bibliography Formative Assessment will count towards engagement.
o Direct patient care technologies require an interaction, or direct contact, between the nurse and patient. Nurses use direct patient care technologies every day when delivering care to patients. Electronic thermometers or pulse oximeters are examples of direct patient care technologies.
o Indirect patient care technologies, on the other hand, are those employed on behalf of the patient. They do not require interaction, or direct contact, between the nurse and patient. A handheld device for patient documentation is an example of an indirect patient care technology.
• Select five peer-reviewed publications focused on your selected topic that are the most interesting to you.
• Evaluate the impact of patient care technologies on desired outcomes.
o Analyze current evidence on the impact of a selected patient care technology on patient safety, quality of care, and the interdisciplinary team.
o Integrate current evidence about the impact of a selected patient care technology on patient safety, quality of care, and the interdisciplinary team into a recommendation.
• Evaluate how your chosen technology can be integrated with Artificial Intelligence to improve patient safety, nurse workflow, or efficient healthcare delivery.

Instructions

Review the technologies presented in the "Sentinel U: Telehealth Nursing Series Medical/Surgical: Lynn Tan" activity. There are 3 patients listed under "Cases". Pick one case and select ONE of the technology options used in the SIM to use as the focus for this assessment. The SIM report must demonstrate 100% complete. You will upload the completed SIM report with your assignment.
Next prepare a 4-6 page paper in which you introduce your selected technology and describe at least five peer-reviewed publications that promote the use of your selected technology to enhance quality and safety standards in nursing. You will conclude your paper by summarizing why you recommend a particular technology by underscoring the evidence-based resources you presented. Be sure that your paper includes all of the following elements:
• Introduction to the Selected Technology Topic
o What is your rationale for selecting this particular technology topic? What is interesting about it?
o What research process did you employ?
• Which databases did you use?
• Which search terms did you use?
• Note: In this section of your bibliography, you may use first-person since you are asked to describe your rationale for selecting the topic and the research strategies you employed. Use third person in the rest of the bibliography, however.
• Annotation Elements
o For each resource, include the full reference followed by the annotation.
o Explain the focus of the research or review article you chose.
o Provide a summary overview of the publication.
• According to this source, what is the impact of this technology on patient safety and quality of care?
• According to this source, what is the relevance of this technology to nursing practice and the work of the interdisciplinary health care team?
• Why did you select this publication to write about out of the many possible options? In other words, make the case as to why this resource is important for health care practitioners to read.
