Given the complex health and social needs of older adults, the rapid growth of the aging population, and the increasing use of information technology in healthcare, there is a critical need for informatics solutions that advance gerontological nursing care and knowledge discovery. This article illustrates the value of standardized data for healthcare quality improvement throughout the life cycle of data capture and reuse. One such informatics solution is the MyStrengths+MyHealth app, which incorporates a whole-person perspective through the Simplified Omaha System Terms assessment, including the social and behavioral determinants of health, as well as resilience. The data describe whole-person health of older adults from MyStrengths+MyHealth for use in clinical encounters and as raw data for research. There is potential to use such standardized data to improve gerontological nursing care at the bedside and for population health management and research.
鉴于老年人复杂的健康和社会需求、人口老龄化的快速增长以及信息技术在医疗保健中的日益普及，我们迫切需要信息学解决方案来推动老年护理学的发展和知识发现。本文说明了标准化数据在数据捕获和重复使用的整个生命周期中对医疗保健质量改进的价值。其中一种信息学解决方案是 MyStrengths+MyHealth 应用程序，它通过简化的奥马哈系统术语评估，包括健康的社会和行为决定因素以及韧性，将整体人视角纳入其中。这些数据描述了 MyStrengths+MyHealth 中老年人的整体健康状况，可用于临床就诊，并可作为研究的原始数据。有可能利用这种标准化数据来改善床边的老年护理学，以及进行人口健康管理和研究。
