Targeted Video-on-Demand EMR Education for OR Nurses
Johnson-Huber, Cariann
ProQuest LLC, D.N.P. Dissertation, Carlow University
Background: Today's healthcare organizations face financial and educational challenges of sustaining electronic medical record (EMR) advancements and regulatory reporting mandates. One such mandate is providing EMR education in the Operating Room (OR) setting to support reporting compliance and patient safety. Local Problem: At a multi-state healthcare system in Pennsylvania, informatics education and changes to the EMR are not effectively presented to the new hire OR nurses based upon a 16% accuracy in initial surgical implant documentation. This may lead to gaps in data integrity, resulting in a labor-intensive and costly auditing and correction process. Intervention: The investigator created an innovative video, on-demand education module using Camtasia, which detailed the steps to document the surgical implant segment in the EMR accurately. The educational video was made available to the OR nursing staff at the point of care via computer or mobile device so the nurses could access it at any time. Analysis: The daily surgical implant report was analyzed using quantitative methods (z-score and two independent t-tests) to compare the amount of complete and incomplete data points. Results: Out of 47 possible participants, there were 20 unique views of the education video. Quantitative methods (z-score and two independent t-tests) revealed a statistically significant difference between the pre and post-intervention compliance/documentation ratios (p<0.0001). Compliance accuracy rose from 16% pre-intervention to 80% post-intervention. Conclusion: This innovative, educational method increased documentation practices, increased reporting compliance and ultimately impact health outcomes such as patient safety. Therefore, implementing targeted, video-on-demand education impacts OR nursing by transitioning EMR education modules to the point of care (via computer or mobile device) and may guide future practice, policy, and financial sustainability.
