Abstract
Objective To develop the comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) nursing information management system and to explore its application value. Methods CGA and mobile nursing information system were combined to design and develop the CGA nursing information management system. Totally 196 geriatric inpatients admitted in Geriatric Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from April 1st to June 30th, 2018 were selected using convenient sampling. These geriatric patients were managed by the well-trained nursing staff using the system, including CGA at admission and before discharge and continuous CGA. The changes of CGA at admission and discharge were used to assess the clinical application value of the CGA nursing information management system. Results The consistency rate of the implementation of CGA nursing intervention with CGA nursing norms was 67%-91%. The geriatric patients' pain scores at discharge decreased compared with those at admission (P 0.05) . Conclusions The CGA nursing information management system is conductive to the implementation of CGA clinically, the monitoring of the effects of CGA nursing intervention, and the nursing quality control by nursing managers, which is worth promoting clinically and in communities.
