TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION IN MEDICAL SURGICAL NURSING
Abstract
The integration of technology into med-surg nursing practices has ushered in a new era of efficiency, accuracy, and patient-centered care. From electronic health records to telehealth solutions, simulation training, and smart devices, technology is reshaping the way med-surg nurses approach their roles. Technologies like small wearable sensors that collect patient data and electronic management system that streamline process can alleviate time-consuming responsibilities. These efficiencies let nurses focus on more critical tasks and quality patient time while reducing the risk of nurse burnout. Nursing integration is the capstone immersion experience designed to provide the student with knowledge synthesis and skills acquired during previous work .Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies like automated data analysis and have helped providers streamline diagnoses, improve accuracy, and forecast patient outcomes. All of these contribute positively to overall patient outcomes and general quality of care. What is Integrated Health Care? Integrated health care, often referred to as interprofessional health care, is an approach characterized by a high degree of collaboration and communication among health professionals .AI can enhance patient monitoring and support predictive analytics. Moreover, through AI‐enabled technologies, nurses have the capability to continuously monitor patients' vital signs, detect early warning signs of deterioration and receive real‐time alerts.
