尽管重视哮喘教育,但哮喘死亡率仍在上升,青少年的致残率更高。技术为开发管理、控制和预防慢性病急性发作的手段提供了前所未有的机会。本文描述了手持无线计算机设备(如个人数字助理或袖珍个人计算机)的使用,以防止急诊科就诊和改善严重持续性哮喘患者的预后。描述了个人数字助理的使用以及在使用过程中遇到的挑战。关于护士在计划的设计、实施和评估患者结果方面的贡献的建议被提供。
Despite the emphasis placed on asthma education, asthma mortality is on the increase, with rates of disability higher in adolescents. Technology provides unprecedented opportunities for developing means to manage, control, and prevent acute episodes in chronic illnesses. This article describes the use of handheld wireless computer devices (eg, personal digital assistant or pocket personal computer) to prevent emergency department visits and to improve outcomes for patients with severe persistent asthma. The uses of personal digital assistants and challenges encountered in their use are described. Recommendations regarding nurses' contribution in the design, implementation, and evaluation of the program patient outcomes are provided.
