The aim of this contemporary issue paper is to challenge the premise that the term "eHealth" is relatable to patient or service users only. It will be critically explored if the term can be broadened to include neonatal nurse education interventions.
A review of current literature will form the basis for the critical discussion of the term eHealth, and why it can be associated with neonatal nurse education.
The critical discussion will identify and review past and current literature relating to eHealth and its origins. It will portray the viability of the term eHealth as more than just a patient associated intervention, and why it should also be encompassed as a neonatal nurse education option.
eHealth is traditionally identifiable as a service user intervention or source of information. The term should be broadened to encompass neonatal nurse education and used as a resource that is easily accessible and user friendly. This will in turn encourage the personal and professional development of neonatal nurses and should ultimately contribute to evidence based best practices in the clinical environment, despite the current global pandemic.
本当代问题论文的目的是挑战“电子健康”一词仅与患者或服务使用者相关的前提。将批判性地探讨该术语是否可以扩展到包括新生儿护士教育干预措施。
对当前文献的回顾将构成对“电子健康”一词进行批判性讨论的基础，以及它为何可与新生儿护士教育相关联。
批判性讨论将识别和回顾过去及当前与电子健康及其起源相关的文献。它将描绘“电子健康”一词不仅仅作为一种与患者相关的干预措施的可行性，以及为何它也应被纳入新生儿护士教育选项。
传统上，电子健康被视为一种服务使用者干预措施或信息来源。该术语应扩展到涵盖新生儿护士教育，并用作易于获取且用户友好的资源。这反过来将鼓励新生儿护士的个人和专业发展，并最终应有助于在临床环境中形成基于证据的最佳实践，尽管当前全球正在流行疫情。
