A framework for nursing documentation enabling integration with HER and real-time patient monitoring

This paper proposes a framework for mobile nursing documentation enabling the integration of clinical intervention data with both electronic health record systems and real-time intelligent decision support systems for patient monitoring. A brief discussion on the networking and information security concerns is presented in order to provide context for the mobile application design decisions surround data transmission and storage. The framework is demonstrated using an initial case study in a neonatal intensive care unit.
