Literature Review of Technology in Nursing

Literature Review of Technology in Nursing
A well-prepared literature review documents the current knowledge on a selected practice topic and may indicate whether the findings are ready to be incorporated into practice. The purpose of the literature review, using peer-reviewed published research, is to summarize key findings of research that promotes the use of technology and telecommunications in nursing. In this assignment, you will gain the experience of conducting a literature review of a selected topic on the use of technology and telecommunications in health care.
For this assignment, you will:
Select a topic on a specific patient care technology or telecommunication in health care that you have interest in reviewing. Topic examples:
Wireless communication solutions.
Real-time location systems.
Delivery robots.
Workflow management systems.
Wireless patient monitoring solutions.
Electronic medication administration with bar coding.
Telehealth.
Electronic clinical documentation with clinical decision support.
Interactive patient systems.
Conduct a search using the various electronic databases
Select studies published during the past five years.
Select four appropriate peer-reviewed, research-based articles. These studies may be qualitative, quantitative, or outcomes-based. Note: The articles should not be a meta-analysis.
