The document outlines 5 ways that evidence-based nursing practice in informatics can contribute to the efficiency and effectiveness of nursing interventions: 1. Using informatics to provide patients with research-based health information allows patients to make more informed care decisions, which can lead to better outcomes. 2. Health information exchange enables nurses to access patient data from other healthcare providers, which is helpful for caring for unfamiliar patients. 3. Well-designed electronic health systems can help nurses look up patient information, chart, and respond to inquiries more efficiently, freeing up time to spend with patients. 4. Electronic health records can protect nurses by providing a permanent record of care if it is ever questioned. 5

Write at least five (5) ideas related to evidence-based nursing practice on

informatics that will contribute to the efficiency and effectiveness of nursing


interventions.

1. Patient Education
● Informatics can be used by nurses to give patients research-based
information about their conditions and available treatments. Informed
decisions concerning care can be made by patients as a result, which can
enhance overall results.

2. Health Information Exchange (HIE)


● For better patient care decisions, nurses can use HIE to obtain patient
data from other healthcare professionals. This is especially helpful when
caring for individuals who are unfamiliar with the healthcare system.

3. Increase Efficiency
● An electronic health record or system that is well-designed can assist
nurses in efficiently looking up patient information, charting thoroughly,
and responding to inquiries fast. For the busy practitioner, all of this frees
up time that may be better used with patients.

4. Protect Themselves
● If patient care behaviors are ever later questioned, using an electronic
health record to chart can assist safeguard nurses. Even though the
frequent hard stops in an EHR can be inconvenient, they really serve to
remind nurses to complete important charting tasks and serve as a
permanent record of the patient care that was provided.

5. Stress Reduction in Nurses


● Evidence-based practices go far beyond only patient care. These apply to
the nursing staff's care. The high levels of stress and anxiety that
accompany the nursing profession are widely documented. Particularly for
those working in settings like emergency departments and oncology units,
occupational stress can occasionally even result in melancholy or burnout.
