This paper describes a pilot project using a Macintosh personal computer and customized software to computerize nursing admission assessment and care planning data. The project setting is a 47-bed Spinal Cord Injury Center with two inpatient units and an outpatient department serving approximately 1,000 patients with spinal cord injury at a Department of Veterans Affairs Medical Center in northern California. The computer software development, implementation, and evaluation are described. This software (MacNursing) was found to be a low cost, customized approach to computerizing spinal cord injury admission assessment data and care planning which reduces repetitive writing and facilitates continuity of care. Personal computers and this software have provided the mechanism for establishing a spinal cord injury patient database.
本文介绍了一个试点项目，该项目使用苹果麦金塔个人电脑和定制软件，将护理入院评估和护理计划数据进行计算机化处理。项目地点是一家拥有47张床位的脊髓损伤中心，设有两个住院科室和一个门诊部，为加利福尼亚州北部一家退伍军人事务医疗中心的约1000名脊髓损伤患者提供服务。文中描述了计算机软件开发、实施和评估的情况。结果发现，这款软件（MacNursing）是一种低成本的定制方法，可将脊髓损伤入院评估数据和护理计划进行计算机化处理，减少重复性书写，并促进护理的连续性。个人电脑和这款软件为建立脊髓损伤患者数据库提供了途径。
