The SmartRoom technology, a system now owned by TeleTracking Technologies, aims to transform the delivery of patient care in the inpatient environment. The purpose of this project was to use goal setting and SmartRoom patient education videos to examine whether the videos more effectively engaged patients and their families in their discharge plan and encouraged them to take a more active role in their care while hospitalized. This study used a descriptive design to analyze the effect of goal setting and patient education videos on patient satisfaction at discharge, hospital average length of stay, and 30-day readmission rate in the orthopedic spine surgical care setting. Comparisons were made among three patient groups. No statistically significant difference was found for average length of stay and 30-day readmission across these three groups. However, patient satisfaction with discharge, as measured by the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Health Providers and Systems, revealed an increase in five items regarding discharge with statistically significant differences on two of the five items.
智能病房技术现归TeleTracking Technologies公司所有，旨在改变住院环境中患者护理的提供方式。本项目的目的是通过设定目标和使用智能病房患者教育视频，来检验这些视频是否能更有效地让患者及其家属参与到出院计划中，并鼓励他们在住院期间更积极地参与自身护理。本研究采用描述性设计，分析在脊柱骨科手术护理环境中，设定目标和患者教育视频对出院时患者满意度、医院平均住院时长及30天再入院率的影响。对三组患者进行了比较。这三组患者的平均住院时长和30天再入院率未发现有统计学上的显著差异。然而，通过医疗服务提供者和系统消费者评估（Hospital Consumer Assessment of Health Providers and Systems）衡量的患者对出院的满意度显示，在与出院相关的五个项目中，有五个项目有所提高，其中两个项目存在统计学上的显著差异。
