Using Real-Time Visualization of Nursing Observations to Improve Care Delivery

Wednesday, April 19 at 10:00 AM - 11:00 AM CT
South Building, Level 5 | S505

Patient care in the intensive care unit generates enormous volumes of complex data that is difficult to aggregate and summarize. UVA Health Medical Intensive Care Unit (MICU) providers and data scientists developed, validated, and implemented a real-time data visualization tool of observations on catheters (central venous access devices, arterial catheters, midlines, and urinary catheters) made by critical care nurses, with the goal of improving situational awareness, facilitating rapid problem-solving, and increasing bundle adherence among staff in the MICU.

Learning Objectives

  • Identify benefits and limitations of checklists in the critical care unit
  • Evaluate the development of a data display board in a critical care setting
  • Compare benefits and limitations of data visualization from electronic medical record documentation in the critical care setting
