背景:就单一疾病护理模式中的整体可行性和采用而言,远程监护(TM)的实施取得了成功。然而,现有研究的缺乏集中在护士主导的TM实施,该TM针对患有多种和复杂慢性疾病(CCC)的患者,阻碍了规模和传播到这些患者人群.特别是,对门诊CCC患者实施TM的临床观点知之甚少。
目的:本研究旨在更好地了解临床团队(一线临床医生和行政职务人员)对护士主导的临床模式中复杂患者TM的实施和规范化的看法。
方法:务实,进行了为期6个月的实施研究,以嵌入多条件TM,包括心力衰竭,高血压,糖尿病,成为护士主导的综合护理模式。在整个研究过程中,观察临床团队成员,并对这段时间提供的护理进行了图表审查。在研究结束时,临床团队成员参加了定性访谈,并完成了经调整的规范化测量开发问卷.归一化过程理论指导了演绎数据分析。
结果:总体而言,9名团队成员参加了这项研究,作为TM计划的更大可行性研究的一部分,其中26例患者入组。团队成员对TM作为其实践中的干预措施的目的和价值有着共同的理解,以满足CCC患者的多样化需求。TM在几个方面与现有的慢性护理实践很好地吻合,但它改变了护理提供的过程(即,交互工作性子结构)。在护士主导的护理中有效的TM正常化需要重新思考临床工作流程以纳入TM,临床医生和患者之间的关系发展,与跨学科团队的沟通,和频繁的临床护理监督。这通过技能集可操作性的子结构得到了很好的体现,关系集成,规范化过程理论的语境整合。
结论:临床医生成功地将TM应用到他们的日常实践中,因此一些提供者认为,如果没有TM,他们的角色将受到显着负面影响。这项研究表明,基于智能手机的TM系统在综合护士主导的护理模式中补充了照顾CCC患者的常规和具有挑战性的临床工作。
The implementation of telemonitoring (TM) has been successful in terms of the overall feasibility and adoption in single disease care models. However, a lack of available research focused on nurse-led implementations of TM that targets patients with multiple and complex chronic conditions (CCC) hinders the scale and spread to these patient populations. In particular, little is known about the clinical perspective on the implementation of TM for patients with CCC in outpatient care.
This study aims to better understand the perspective of the clinical team (both frontline clinicians and those in administrative positions) on the implementation and normalization of TM for complex patients in a nurse-led clinic model.
A pragmatic, 6-month implementation study was conducted to embed multicondition TM, including heart failure, hypertension, and diabetes, into an integrated nurse-led model of care. Throughout the study, clinical team members were observed, and a chart review was conducted of the care provided during this time. At the end of the study, clinical team members participated in qualitative interviews and completed the adapted Normalization Measure Development questionnaires. The Normalization Process Theory guided the deductive data analysis.
Overall, 9 team members participated in the study as part of a larger feasibility study of the TM program, of which 26 patients were enrolled. Team members had a shared understanding of the purpose and value of TM as an intervention embedded within their practice to meet the diverse needs of their patients with CCC. TM aligned well with existing chronic care practices in several ways, yet it changed the process of care delivery (ie, interactional workability subconstruct). Effective TM normalization in nurse-led care requires rethinking of clinical workflows to incorporate TM, relationship development between the clinicians and their patients, communication with the interdisciplinary team, and frequent clinical care oversight. This was captured well through the subconstructs of skill set workability, relational integration, and contextual integration of the Normalization Process Theory.
Clinicians successfully adopted TM into their everyday practice such that some providers felt their role would be significantly and negatively affected without TM. This study demonstrated that smartphone-based TM systems complemented the routine and challenging clinical work caring for patients with CCC in an integrated nurse-led care model.
