#NURS751 M12: The most important point of evidence-based practice for my future practice is the need to provide my patients with the highest quality of care based on evolving research. To keep up with this evolving research will aid in production of desired patient outcomes.
#NURS751 M12: The American Association of Nurse Practitioners @AANP_NEWS is a future organization where I wish to be an active member and spread my knowledge and research on patients with many chronic conditions, as the complexity of these patients overlaps on many specialties.
#NURS751 M11: Practice-based evidence in contrast to evidence-based practice focuses on cultural traditions and norms, which in diabetic patients has a direct relationship due to ethnic disparities and the drastically different cultures among these prevalent ethnic groups.
@JaneCarrington2#RiddleMeThis#NURS751 The greatest challenge for implementation of lipid management guidelines for diabetic patients is getting providers to fully understand the benefits of statin therapy far outweigh the risks, although there are many.
#NURS751 M10: mHealth could provide great assistance to diabetic patients as their health records including lab results and self-recording of glucose levels at home are stored allowing for clear communication with providers and review of self-management.
#NURS646SS19 WK10: The Institute for Healthcare Improvement @TheIHI is a reliable population health source as it uses quality improvement methods to better manage chronic conditions, with great emphasis on diabetic patients.
#AJNURS751@Nurse_Alvin Thank you for joining our discussion this week! What do you think is the most important aspect of successful implementation of information technology, including clinical decision support systems into our everyday practice?
#NURS751 M9: Clinical practice guidelines for lipid control in type 2 diabetes are strong for policy development as they have been proven through several systematic reviews and high-quality outcomes reducing significant cardiovascular events in this patient population.
#NURS646SS19 WK8: A key feature of clinical decision support systems are its ability to provide prompts to assist decision-making in development of patient care plans for advanced practice providers.
#NURS751 M8: The Diabetes Medication Choice Decision Aid guides diabetic patients based on their health and lifestyle goals as well as costs to determine which medication best applies to them. #DiabetesMedChoiceAid
#NURS751 M7: Adherence will be the greatest challenge in implementing clinical practice guidelines regarding lipid control of Type 2 diabetic patients. Quality of delivery and other moderating factors can assist in the ease of not only implementation, but continuance of use.
#NURS751 M6: The Ottawa Model of Research Use by Jo Logan & @IanDGraham1 provides a practical and interdependent model that would best support implementation of the clinical inquiry of lipid-lowering agents in management of cardiovascular-related issues in Type 2 diabetics.
#NURS646SS19 WK6: As a future provider, system downtime can affect the smooth progress of patients' care plans and communication among members of the healthcare team. A potential solution could be creating a step-by-step protocol to follow to minimize the degree of interruption.
#NURS751 M5: A strength of utilizing clinical practice guidelines in primary care patients with chronic conditions is usability of scientific developments in medicine to target complications with the ultimate goal of improvement of overall population health and quality of life.
#NURS751 M4: Neubeck et al. wrote a systematic review and meta-synthesis on compliance with cardiac rehabilitation. It does not include a meta-analysis, but the article contributes to evidence-based practice by identifying barriers for the millions affected by heart disease.
#NURS646SS19 WK4: The most important problem Wachter & Goldsmith identified with electronic health records is usability. The failure of developers to keep up with a more modern design has prevented worldwide success in improvement of patient outcomes.
