The Electronic Health Record

Question Description

Choose a topic from the course in which you have an interest. Apply informatics theory and content from the course modules, informed by current literature and course materials. Some possible topics include the following:

  • The Electronic Health Record (EHR)
  • Data Analytics/Data Mining in Healthcare IT
  • Standardized Terminologies in Documentation (SNOMED/LOINC)
  • Mobile Healthcare Information Technologies
  • Clinical Communications
  • Telehealth/Telemedicine
  • Human Technology Interface/Usability in Healthcare IT
  • Information Security
  • Roles/Competencies/Development of Nursing Informaticists
  • Patient Engagement Technologies

Theoretical framework examples include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Graves and Corcoran’s Model
  • Sciwirian’s Model
  • Turley’s Model
  • Data/Information/Knowledge/Wisdom (DIKW) Model
  • Sociotechnical Theory
  • Rogers’s Diffusion of Innovation Theory
  • Lewin’s Change Theory
  • Information Theory
  • General-System Theory
  • Chaos Theory

Note: The theoretical framework will serve as the underlying foundation for the paper. Here, you are to demonstrate how it may be applied to a specific nursing informatics issue.

Using that topic and the theoretical framework or model, write a paper that must be between 3750 to 6000 words (15 to 20 pages) in narrative, not including the title and reference pages. This assignment is worth 25% of the final course grade.

The paper should follow APA format and include the following sections:

  • Abstract
  • Introduction
  • Background
  • Body
  • Implications and conclusions with future directions
  • References (minimum 7 to 10)
