There has been little study on how nurse managers collect, store, process and retrieve quality management data, yet nearly every nursing department has an existing program to provide these functions. We investigated our current paper-based system and found several deficiencies. Guided by structured interviews, task analysis, and focus groups we developed a networked computerized quality management database to provide more timely data reporting and consistency of analysis. This paper describes the development and implementation of the system with discussion on how it will be evaluated in the future.
关于护士长如何收集、存储、处理和检索质量管理数据的研究很少，然而几乎每个护理部门都有现有的程序来提供这些功能。我们调查了我们目前基于纸张的系统，发现了几个不足之处。在结构化访谈、任务分析和焦点小组的指导下，我们开发了一个网络化的计算机化质量管理数据库，以提供更及时的数据报告和分析的一致性。本文描述了该系统的开发和实施，并讨论了未来将如何对其进行评估。
