Literature Review The Use of Clinical Systems
Assignment: Literature Review: The Use of
Clinical Systems to Improve Outcomes and
Efficiencies
New technology—and the application of existing technology—only appears in
healthcare settings after careful and significant research. The stakes are high, and new
clinical systems need to offer evidence of positive impact on outcomes or efficiencies.
Nurse informaticists and healthcare leaders formulate clinical system strategies. As
these strategies are often based on technology trends, informaticists and others have
then benefited from consulting existing research to inform their thinking.
In this Assignment, you will review existing research focused on the application of
clinical systems. After reviewing, you will summarize your findings.
To Prepare:
 Review the Resources and reflect on the impact of clinical systems on outcomes
and efficiencies within the context of nursing practice and healthcare delivery.
 Conduct a search for recent (within the last 5 years) research focused on the
application of clinical systems. The research should provide evidence to support
the use of one type of clinical system to improve outcomes and/or efficiencies,
such as “the use of personal health records or portals to support patients newly
diagnosed with diabetes.”
 Identify and select 4 peer-reviewed research articles from your research.

The Assignment: (4-5 pages not including the title and reference page)
In a 4- to 5-page paper, synthesize the peer-reviewed research you reviewed. Format
your Assignment as an Annotated Bibliography. Be sure to address the following:
 Identify the 4 peer-reviewed research articles you reviewed, citing each in APA
format.
 Include an introduction explaining the purpose of the paper.
 Summarize each study, explaining the improvement to outcomes, efficiencies,
and lessons learned from the application of the clinical system each peer-
reviewed article described. Be specific and provide examples.
 In your conclusion, synthesize the findings from the 4 peer-reviewed research
articles.
 Use APA format and include a title page.
 Use the Safe Assign Drafts to check your match percentage before submitting
your work.
