An operational model for patient-centered informatics.
There are no multidisciplinary operational models to guide nursing informaticists and clinical system users in the design and implementation of computer-supported multidisciplinary care. The Patient-Centered Informatics Model is offered as just such a pragmatic guide. It fuses earlier work with new concepts and allows a visual depiction of crucial elements-influencing factors such as regulations and healthcare delivery models, system attributes such as healthcare delivery methods, knowledge base and supporting technology and categories of results of application processing. The model can help users and executives organize their thinking about the design, implementation, and evaluation of clinical systems in complex settings.
