Purpose: This study was conducted to evaluate the record completeness of the nursing process in the Electronic Nursing Record(ENR) in a university hospital. Methods: We compared nursing statements documented in 2004 with those from the year 2007, given the fact that the ENR system had been utilized since 2004. The ENRs of 35 gastrectomy patients in each year were selected for evaluation. The selected data were 11,822 nursing statements in 2004 and 27,870 in 2007. Results: The number of nursing records which documented the whole nursing process completely was 4,010 (48.3%) in 2007, whereas 513 (5.9%) in 2004 (p<.001). The number of incomplete records in 2004 was 8,142 (94.1%), while 4,300 (51.7%) in 2007 (p<.001). The number of nursing diagnoses was 846 in 2004 and 4,313 in 2007, which increased in number more than 5 times. The most frequently used diagnoses were 'pain', 'risk for infection' and 'risk for ileus' in both years. Conclusion: There was a significant increase in the record completeness on nursing process in 2007 compared to the records in 2004. The reasons for this increase are attributed to nurse training for encouraging to complete recording and nursing record auditing.

Purpose: This study intended to evaluate the intermediate effects of using Electronic Nursing Record System which was introduced 4 years and 4 months ago. Methods: Participants were 65 nurses engaged in 3 shifts in a general hospital. The specific methods were identification of nursing activity times by means of nurses' self-recording in structured forms, survey of user satisfaction using questionnaires, and examination of nurses' responses to open-ended questions about using the system. Results: The direct nursing activities took more than 50% of the time during day and evening shifts. In night shift, direct nursing activities took more than 41% of the time. Comparing to the initial evaluation, measured at 10 months after the introduction, the time spent in indirect nursing activities have decreased about 10% in each shift. The user satisfaction was 3.54 points which was higher than 3.33 points measured at 10 months after the introduction. The nurses recommended some changes needed in the current system to make it better, such as speeding up the system. Conclusion: The intermediate evaluation shows reduced indirect nursing time, increased direct nursing time, and improved user satisfaction.

Purpose: The aims of this study were to analyze the frequency of standard nursing statements used in the Electronic Nursing Record (ENR) and to evaluate the degree of satisfaction by users of the ENR system. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the ENR of 1914 patients who were admitted to our center between 1 May 2011 and 31 May 2011. Additionally, we collected questionnaires from 100 doctors and 300 nurses to evaluate the satisfaction of the users. Results: The frequency of use for the following standard nursing statements was investigated: standard nursing assessment statements (43.6%), standard nursing diagnosis statements (61.8%), standard nursing plan statements (46.7%), standard nursing intervention statements (56.9%), and standard nursing evaluation statements (41.7%). The mean satisfaction score was 3.03 out of 5 in the nurse's group, and 3.11 in the doctor's group. The nurses said the advantages of the ENR system were as follows: easy to access, informative, and standardized terms. However 75.7% of the nurse answered that they cannot express actual nursing situations exactly with the currently limited standard nursing statements. Conclusion: Development of various standard nursing statements is needed to meet the demands of the users. As a result, the use of the ENR system would become easier and more efficient for its users.

Purpose: To identify user requirements for electronic nursing record (ENR) systems so as to ensure system usability. Methods: A mixed methods approach were applied in three steps : (i) task and workflow analysis with literature review of nursing documentation, (ii) literature reviews of system usability, and (iii) Use Case idenfication and consensus-based validation. We analyzed the nursing activity logs collected from a time-motion investigation of six hospitals. The Use Cases were validated by eight clinical experts from different hospitals and two experts from academia in a sequential Delphi survey. Consensus was achieved for the significance score and agreement among the panel. Results: Eight task groups and patterns of task flow were observed, which were translated into nine Use Cases. The specification of Use Cases was derived from principles, guidelines, and recommendations on nursing documentation and electronic health record systems, which was organized into three requirements of each Use Case: functionality, information, and design characteristics. Each Use Case achieved an agreement of 50~70%, and significance scores of 4 or 5 on a 5-point Likert scale. Conclusion: The nine Use Case identified were considered to be important and adequate in terms of both clinical and informatics contexts.

Purpose: This study was done to analyze nursing assessment and nursing care for pain in the electronic nursing records for the elderly patients with abdominal pain visiting the Emergency Medical Center. Methods: This study is a descriptive study based on nursing records from January to December 2015. A total of 1155 records for elderly patients with abdominal pain were gathered. Results: The mean age of elderly patients whose records were analyzed was 75.2 years. Analysis of nursing records regarding pain management showed that semi-urgent severity (93.7%), direct emergency room visits (58%), and 6.01 hours of emergency room stay (6.01 hours)were the most frequently documented characteristics of the elderly patients with pain complaints. Recording time of nursing assessment for abdominal patients was 1.01 hour; the average pain intensity was 3.97. The mostly used nursing intervention for abdominal pain was medication (65.1%). There was no record of non-pharmacological pain nursing interventions. Conclusion: The results of this study showed that improving knowledge and nursing practice for pain management is much of necessity. In particular, development of the non-pharmacological nursing interventions for pain is needed. Further research is also imperative to develop and evaluate record systems for pain management that can be used in the emergency room.
