Smart Medical Nursing Care Unit based on Internet of Things for Emergency Healthcare

Recently, the development and integration of various sensor control with smart intelligent unit is used in medical field through IoT. However, there is still a lot of space for growth in the medical and health industry's use of new technology. The traditional nurse care unit is managed through medical staffs, and the expanding medical demands creates the hospital’s patients records to be updated inefficiently. Since this is now an urgent need, developing a realistic, smart medical nursing care unit at low cost with a system capable of facilitating the effective and convenient administration of medical staff has taken a new significance. The proposed framework, conducted in the analysis to monitor medical records and activities of the emergency care unit patients, functions as a nurse and gives patients the nurse care satisfaction. The patients' actual location may be obtained for the first time by cloud computing based smart system. The precise location of the patient is critical to rescue the patient in emergency situation. This research work illustrates that the intelligent nurse care unit is the main phase called Smart Medical Nursing Care (SMNC). It contains several sensor units and by the combination of many sensors in the sensor module, it takes very less reaction time to connect or communicate both sides i.e., between patients and medical staffs.

Improving Outcomes for Families of Children With Medical Needs Known to Child Welfare: A Nurse Care Coordination Program

Children known to child welfare are more likely to have poor health compared to the general population. Most children served by child welfare are served in their own homes. New Jersey implemented the Child and Family Nurse Program (CFNP) to provide nurse care coordination to address the health needs of children who remain in-home. Our study described: 1) families served by CFNP; 2) services provided to these families; and 3) family well-being outcomes. The study focused on the 304 families served by CFNP from 2016 to 2017. We used CFNP data to describe families served and services provided, and family baseline and follow-up surveys to assess change in family well-being over time. Families served by CFNP experienced improvements in family protective factors and health-related quality of life from baseline to follow-up. While more rigorous studies are needed to learn CFNP’s impact, it is a promising approach that merits consideration by state child welfare leaders.

Living disorders in the practice of obstetric nurse care: the complex look at the phenomenon / Vivenciando as desordens na prática do cuidado do enfermeiro obstetra: o olhar complexo ao fenômeno

Objetivo: Compreender as desordens vivenciadas pelo enfermeiro em sua prática do cuidado no parto, à luz da Complexidade. Método: Estudo qualitativo com delineamento da Teoria Fundamentada nos Dados como referencial metodológico e a Teoria da Complexidade como suporte teórico. Foram entrevistados 31 participantes de maternidades do Rio Grande do Norte, Brasil organizados em três grupos amostrais de enfermeiros, gestores de saúde e médicos. Resultados: Os enfermeiros obstetras vivenciam desordens em relação à sua autonomia, ao poder do médico e a violência obstétrica no processo de parto, à falta de apoio da gestão de saúde e gestão das maternidades, à falta de organização da rede e, como consequência, vivenciam sentimentos negativos na atuação. Conclusão: Essas deverão ser superadas como possibilidade de mudança no modelo de atenção do enfermeiro obstetra.
