As a professional nurse, you are expected to apply your expertise to patient care. On occasion, you will also be expected to share that expertise.
With evolving technology and continuous changes to regulations designed to keep up these changes, there is usually a need to share information and expertise to inform colleagues, leadership, patients, and other stakeholders.
study a recent nursing informatics-related healthcare policy, and you will share the relevant details via a fact sheet designed to inform and educate.
Review the Resources on healthcare policy and regulatory/legislative topics related to health and nursing informatics.
Consider the role of the nurse informaticist in relation to a healthcare organization’s compliance with various policies and regulations, such as the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act (MACRA).
Research and select one health or nursing informatics policy (within the past 5 years) or regulation for further study.
The assimilation of health sciences, computer science, information technology, artificial intelligence, and cognitive science in the management of healthcare information was a major antecedent to Healthcare Informatics as a discipline (Liu, et al., 2015). Nursing Informatics is a subcategory of informatics, particularly focused on the role of the nurse in the healthcare setting. A definition by the American Nurses Association (ANA) of healthcare informatics as a specialty that incorporates nursing, science, computer science, and information science to the management and communication of data, information, and knowledge in nursing practice (ANA, 2016). In this way, healthcare informatics is perceived as an infinitely developing field in medical practice and are constantly introducing new and evolving paradigms.
ver many years transport has been a source of economic growth by moving goods and workers around the country but has also been a major source of greenhouse gas emissions [1]. To tackle these emissions including other harmful emissions from transport, it has been at the motivation of researchers and manufacturers to develop and improve transportation technologies that lower carbon emissions. This has led to the increased use of electric vehicles and plug‐in hybrid electric vehicles, therefore making motor drives, energy storage systems, and power electronics important related issues [1].
Optimization and sustainable use of energy sources is the main goal of many electrical machine manufacturers around the world. One of the ideas was to apply an electric powertrain to a motorcycle dating as far back as 1895. The first efforts in creating an electric powered single-track vehicle can be found in the patent index from 19 September 1895 in Ohio, USA, where Ogden Bolton Jr. patented an “electrical bicycle” [2][3].
In the following years, new constructions suitable and relevant to the state of technology of the time were created for example in 1919, the Ransomes, Sims & Jefferies company had created a prototype of an electric motorbike powered from a battery located in a sidecar and named it Orwell [3][4]. As a result of technological advances in construction and materials technology, new innovations were created and presently there is a wide choice of models to choose from. This report will discuss the present state of technology and the design criteria incorporated in a racing electric motorbike which has gone beyond proving performance is possible with an electric motorcycle in comparison to traditional internal combustion engines.
Several specialist electric motorcycles and traditional motorcycle manufacturers have electric bikes in the market which are used as daily transportation as well as for racing or have concepts awaiting to be showcased [6]. Today’s racing motorbikes have mixed performance requirements due to different consumer targets and ra
