Nursing informatics has become a useful tool for worldwide patient care and management; however, its implementation greatly varies according to specialty, healthcare setting, and nation. The purpose of this study was to determine nursing informatics implementation in Qiqihar, China. Questionnaires evaluating the advantages and disadvantages of nursing informatics implementation and hospital information system knowledge were distributed among three hospitals in Qiqihar. A convenient sample of 50 nurses from each hospital (total N = 150) was selected to participate in this study. Responses indicated that despite a relatively brief training period, nursing informatics was adequately implemented, and nurses were knowledgeable about hospital information systems. Respondents identified several key advantages of nursing informatics implementation, particularly its usefulness in aiding patient care for data management. Finally, respondents identified hospital information system instability as a major obstacle to nursing informatics implementation. Our study results may help clinical nursing practitioners improve their technology skills and help nursing administrators improve information programs. These findings provide an important reference for both nursing informatics practice and further studies.
护理信息学已成为全球患者护理和管理的有用工具；然而，其实施情况因专业、医疗环境和国家的不同而有很大差异。本研究的目的是确定中国齐齐哈尔市护理信息学的实施情况。评估护理信息学实施的优缺点以及医院信息系统知识的问卷在齐齐哈尔市的三家医院中发放。从每家医院方便抽取50名护士（共N = 150）参与本研究。回复表明，尽管培训期相对较短，但护理信息学得到了充分实施，护士对医院信息系统也有一定了解。受访者指出了护理信息学实施的几个关键优势，特别是其在协助患者护理进行数据管理方面的有用性。最后，受访者将医院信息系统不稳定视为护理信息学实施的主要障碍。我们的研究结果可能有助于临床护理从业者提高其技术技能，并帮助护理管理人员改进信息项目。这些发现为护理信息学实践和进一步研究提供了重要参考。
