[Computerization and nursing: in search of an ideal!].

The computerized systems that are currently available are frequently incompatible with the specific information needs of nursing practice (Grassert, 1990). It is not currently possible to analyze the computerization requirements of nursing practice, since we do not know towards what ideal situation the process of computerizing nursing should be evolving. This makes it impossible to measure the gap between the status quo and the ideal situation. This methodological study described the desired situation by identifying 43 criteria for ideal management procedures and the handling of data needed in nursing practice. Criteria were validated using the DELPHI technique on a non-probablist sampling of 22 nurses who had developed some expertise in computerization in nursing. The study paves the way for conducting a needs assessment, then measuring the capacity of current systems to meet specific needs in terms of management and handling of nursing data.

The pediatric Internet.

The Internet is a set of rules for computer communications that has created easy access to electronic mail, electronic mailing lists, and the World Wide Web. The "pediatric Internet" consists of a growing collection of Internet resources that deal specifically with the health care of the young. Locating this information, judging its quality, and determining its appropriate use presents difficulties, but the ubiquity of the Internet makes it imperative for child health professionals to learn the skills necessary to access and provide information via this medium. The Internet will be used increasingly for scientific publishing, the original purpose of the World Wide Web. This article presents basic definitions for the Internet, some characteristics of the pediatric Internet, guidance on how to locate information, and what the future of the pediatric Internet holds.

HOLON: extending Web document libraries via objects in order to support the health information infrastructure. Health Object Library Online.

In HOLON, user clients, applications, data servers, and fine-grained elements are all objects in a document library. To that end, this paper reviews the past year of progress and lessons learned in HOLON for integrating the Web, HL7, CORBA, Arden, KQML, UMLS Thesaurus, and other standards to determine if object technology reduces common problems in document-centric libraries such as indexing, searching/retrieving, complex data type management, and maintenance, among others.

Developing a medical informatics education program to support a statewide health information network.

The Florida Health Information Network (FHIN) was established in October 1989 to provide biomedical information services to the University of Florida Health Science Center (HSC) and to health professionals throughout the state--especially the northern thirty-nine counties of the state. FHIN services are available to all affiliates of the HSC and by annual subscription to nonaffiliates. At present, FHIN services include database access, circulation services, document delivery, and information services. Training network users has been an objective since the inception. Training has targeted both the HSC Library staff and HSC users and now is expanding to include remote users. Because many users have had insufficient experience with computers, the library has to teach the mechanics of access and network use and to instruct users regarding applications and database searching. This paper describes the development and implementation of the medical informatics education program. Topics include library staff training; educational offerings for HSC faculty, staff, and students; development and implementation of the remote training program; and organizational and budgetary implications for the construction of such a program.

Military research needs in biomedical informatics.

The 2001 U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (USAMRMC) Biomedical Informatics Roadmap Meeting was devoted to developing a strategic plan in four focus areas: Hospital and Clinical Informatics, E-Health, Combat Health Informatics, and Bioinformatics and Biomedical Computation. The driving force of this Roadmap Meeting was the recent accelerated pace of change in biomedical informatics in which emerging technologies have the potential to affect significantly the Army research portfolio and investment strategy in these focus areas. The meeting was structured so that the first two days were devoted to presentations from experts in the field, including representatives from the three services, other government agencies, academia, and the private sector, and the morning of the last day was devoted to capturing specific biomedical informatics research needs in the four focus areas. This white paper summarizes the key findings and recommendations and should be a powerful tool for the crafting of future requests for proposals to help align USAMRMC new strategic research investments with new developments and emerging technologies.
