Expert systems are "intelligent" computer programs designed to mimic the decision making of a human expert. This article describes two formal evaluations of one of the first nursing expert systems. Initial results were positive, however, subsequent analysis identified significant limitations in the ability of the expert system to mimic the consultation process of advanced practice nurses (APNs). Because few newly developed systems are being subjected to a clinical trial or to the scrutiny reported here, developing systems may prove to be cost inefficient over time. APNs must be actively involved in the design, development, and evaluation of all nursing expert systems.
专家系统是旨在模拟人类专家决策的“智能”计算机程序。本文描述了对首批护理专家系统之一的两项正式评估。初步结果是积极的，然而，后续分析发现该专家系统在模拟高级执业护士（APN）会诊过程的能力方面存在重大局限性。由于很少有新开发的系统接受临床试验或此处报告的审查，随着时间的推移，开发系统可能会被证明成本效益低下。APN必须积极参与所有护理专家系统的设计、开发和评估。
