title: Using computer-aided systems to provide patient information.
abstract: Patient information should be tailored to suit the learning style of each person. Benefits and constrains of the method of information delivery should be taken into consideration. Using computer-aided systems to provide for patients' information needs is not a new concept. Studies have shown positive results in well-being when such systems are used and nurses act as facilitators.
