Correlation Between Diagnosis-Related Group Weights and Nursing Time in the Cardiology Department: Cross-Sectional Study

Correlation Between Diagnosis-Related Group Weights and Nursing Time in the Cardiology Department: Cross-Sectional Study

Kang et al [21] performed nursing time statistics based on the hospital information platform, and despite the slightly improved efficiency, the statistical workload was still a lot due to the extraction of data from multiple systems. Meanwhile, Zhang et al [22] calculated nursing time using the load weighting method. The assignment of load weights mainly depended on the subjective assessment of experts, with a large influence from human factors.

Nurses’ Perspectives and Experiences of Using a Bed-Exit Information System in an Acute Hospital Setting: Mixed Methods Study

Nurses’ Perspectives and Experiences of Using a Bed-Exit Information System in an Acute Hospital Setting: Mixed Methods Study

We refer to such behaviors as adverse events (AEs) in the context of nursing care when they affect the health or well-being of patients or increase the workload of nurses (see the Adverse Events in the Context of Nursing Care section). A particular challenge for nurses in hospitals is motor agitation in and around the bed, as well as related incidents such as falls or the disconnection of catheters or vascular access [6].

Digital Information Ecosystems in Modern Care Coordination and Patient Care Pathways and the Challenges and Opportunities for AI Solutions

Digital Information Ecosystems in Modern Care Coordination and Patient Care Pathways and the Challenges and Opportunities for AI Solutions

The figure highlights several key challenges that hinder the efficient management of the digital information ecosystem, such as interoperability issues, information silos, increased workload and clinician burden, coordination and communication gaps, patient care journey mapping, and the complexities of complying with privacy regulations.

Calculating Optimal Patient to Nursing Capacity: Comparative Analysis of Traditional and New Methods

Calculating Optimal Patient to Nursing Capacity: Comparative Analysis of Traditional and New Methods

Additionally, the calculation includes minutes of care required for admissions and discharges, ensuring that the dynamic bed count reflects the unit’s actual workload every hour. A more detailed description and example of the dynamic bed count calculation is available in Multimedia Appendix 1.

Improving the Care of Severe, Open Fractures and Postoperative Infections of the Lower Extremities: Protocol for an Interdisciplinary Treatment Approach

Improving the Care of Severe, Open Fractures and Postoperative Infections of the Lower Extremities: Protocol for an Interdisciplinary Treatment Approach

Above- or below-average resources are recorded with the median of differences (pretest-posttest estimates of resources), leading to other hypotheses: (1) above-average resources are associated with lower workload, and below-average resources are associated with higher workload (hypothesis 2); (2) above-average resources are associated with higher work engagement (hypothesis 3a); (3) when resources increase, work engagement increases (hypothesis 3b); (4) if resources increase (exclusion of technical competence

Validating the Effectiveness of the Patient-Centered Cancer Care Framework by Assessing the Impact of Work System Factors on Patient-Centered Care and Quality of Care: Interview Study With Newly Diagnosed Cancer Patients

Validating the Effectiveness of the Patient-Centered Cancer Care Framework by Assessing the Impact of Work System Factors on Patient-Centered Care and Quality of Care: Interview Study With Newly Diagnosed Cancer Patients

In addition, although many studies have focused on the workload of physicians and staff, no study has focused on the workload of patients with cancer. In this qualitative study, we explored the impact of work system factors on newly diagnosed patients with cancer’s perceptions of PCC and QOC and the impact of PCC on the QOC outcomes among newly diagnosed patients with cancer following a suggested conceptual framework.

Standardized Comparison of Voice-Based Information and Documentation Systems to Established Systems in Intensive Care: Crossover Study

Standardized Comparison of Voice-Based Information and Documentation Systems to Established Systems in Intensive Care: Crossover Study

In response to this increasing workload, an improved documentation system is needed to enable the ICU staff to focus on their patients and decrease the time spent on documentation. Several aspects contribute to the workload in ICUs. First, medical knowledge in general is growing exponentially [13]. Medical guidelines and treatments increase in dynamicity and complexity as medical decisions and treatments at the patient’s bed need to follow the current state of scientific evidence [14].

Workload, Usability, and Engagement with a Mobile App Supporting Video Observation of Methadone Take-Home Dosing: Usability Study

Workload, Usability, and Engagement with a Mobile App Supporting Video Observation of Methadone Take-Home Dosing: Usability Study

We hypothesized that the mobile app would have favorable workload, usability, and engagement for patients with OUD receiving methadone treatment, including for patients who had higher versus lower adherence to the app during the original pilot program. We also hypothesized that counselors would report favorable workload, usability, and engagement for the provider-facing app portal.

An Investigation of Factors Influencing the Postponement of the Use of Distributed Research Networks in South Korea: Web-Based Users’ Survey Study

An Investigation of Factors Influencing the Postponement of the Use of Distributed Research Networks in South Korea: Web-Based Users’ Survey Study

Ultimately, the majority of participants were worried about their financial risk and workload from DRNs (Multimedia Appendices 2-4). The following conclusions were drawn based on this study’s results. The first interesting result is that among financial risk [25,26], performance risk [25,26], privacy risk [25,26], responsibilities [22-24], and workload [23,24], only performance risk and workload from DRNs were found to affect users’ postponement of DRN use.

Experiences of Health Care Professionals Working Extra Weekends to Reduce COVID-19–Related Surgical Backlog: Cross-sectional Study

Experiences of Health Care Professionals Working Extra Weekends to Reduce COVID-19–Related Surgical Backlog: Cross-sectional Study

As this program launched during the peak of the second wave, it was possible that participation in ORRACLE-Xtra would have a negative impact on staff due to the increased workload. To our knowledge, the impact of COVID-19 surgical backlog recovery work on staff has not been previously reported, particularly work performed during the pandemic. This information would be useful in the planning of COVID-19 surgical recovery activities, which depend greatly on human resources.
