introduction

This assessment will give you the opportunity to deepen your knowledge of how technology can enhance quality and safety standards in nursing. You will prepare an annotated bibliography on technology in nursing. A well-prepared annotated bibliography is a comprehensive commentary on the content of scholarly publications and other sources of evidence about a selected nursing-related technology. A bibliography of this type provides a vehicle for workplace discussion to address gaps in nursing practice and to improve patient care outcomes. As nurses become more accountable in their practice, they are being called upon to expand their role of caregiver and advocate to include fostering research and scholarship to advance nursing practice. An annotated bibliography stimulates innovative thinking to find solutions and approaches to effectively and efficiently address these issues.

For this assessment, you will write a 4–6 page annotated bibliography where you identify peer-
reviewed publications that promote the use of one of the technologies presented below that
enhance quality and safety standards in nursing.
Before you complete the detailed instructions in the courseroom, 

We would first review one of the technologies
below.

 Electronic Medication Administration with Barcoding: This technology involves
scanning barcodes on patient wristbands and medications to ensure the right patient
receives the right medication at the right dose and time. It significantly reduces
medication errors and enhances patient safety.
 Tele-ICU: Tele-ICU uses telemedicine technology to provide critical care expertise to
ICUs from a remote location. This allows for continuous monitoring of ICU patients and
provides smaller hospitals access to critical care specialists they might not have on-site.

• Direct patient care technologies require an interaction, or direct contact, between the nurse and patient. Nurses use direct patient care technologies every day when delivering care to patients. Electronic thermometers or pulse oximeters are examples of direct patient care technologies.
• Indirect patient care technologies, on the other hand, are those employed on behalf of the patient. They do not require interaction, or direct contact, between the nurse and patient. A handheld device for patient documentation is an example of an indirect patient care technology.
• Conduct a library search using the various electronic databases available through the Capella University Library.
  • Consult the BSN Program Library Research Guide for help in identifying scholarly and/or authoritative sources.
  • Access the NHS Learner Success Lab, linked in the courseroom navigation menu, for additional resources.
• Scan the search results related to your chosen technology.
• Select four peer-reviewed publications focused on your selected topic that are the most interesting to you.
• Evaluate the impact of patient care technologies on desired outcomes.
  • Analyze current evidence on the impact of a selected patient care technology on patient safety, quality of care, and the interdisciplinary team.
  • Integrate current evidence about the impact of a selected patient care technology on patient safety, quality of care, and the interdisciplinary team into a recommendation.

Notes

• Publications may be research studies or review articles from a professional source. Newspapers, magazines, and blogs are not considered professional sources.
• Your selections need to be current—within the last five years.

1.Define psychopharmacology and pharmacodynamics and describe the neuron’s cellular structure. Include the definition of synapses as well as their significance to the nervous and psychological system.

2.Research an article on neuron’s cellular structure works and explain what you found interesting about this topic.

Discussion should be 700 words minimum. References in APA not older than 5 years.

please use the attached book. 

INTERVIEW WITH A CULTURALLY DIVERSE CLIENT:
Conduct an interview with either a client or a previous healthcare consumer (this may be a neighbor, a volunteer, or a total stranger). Please be mindful of HIPPA and provide for confidentiality. Do not identify the interviewee.
• What are the client’s origins? Where were they born? Do they speak another language? (10 Points)
• How do they access the healthcare system? What resources are used? (10 Points)
• Do they have a primary care physician/nurse practitioner? (10 Points)
• Identify any healthcare disparities associated with the client. (10 Points)
• Did their socioeconomic status influence their level of or quality of healthcare? (10 Points)
• Have they ever experienced any issues during their care while at a healthcare facility? (10 Points)
• What specific needs would they like to have addressed when visiting a healthcare practitioner/facility? (10 Points)
• Do they require assistance with community resources to improve their level of care? (5 Points)

o If yes, provide a teaching moment and document this in your interview.
o If no, provide a listing of resources for future use if needed. Refer to the following link for Monroe County:

Using at least 4 current (within the past 5 years), relevant, peer-reviewed resources, create a literature review that does the following:

· Describes the project's topic, resources reviewed, and conclusions of each article.

· Summarizes the principal findings of the research and their relevance to the project's proposed outcomes.

This paper should be at least 2 pages in length and reference
