Modeling Clinical Workflow in Daily ICU Rounds to Support Task-based Patient Monitoring and Care

Published: 28 February 2015 Publication History

Abstract

Of all the duties performed by the critical care team in a hospital intensive care unit (ICU), a primary duty is the morning attending rounds. During and following the rounds, the ICU team devises a 24-hour plan of action comprised of patient-centered tasks. The aim of this doctoral research is to: (1) design and evaluate a novel task management tool that addresses breakdowns in critical care workflow and (2) introduce a new task management notification tool that mitigates workflow breakdowns by identifying the nature and type of notification/alert sent to the clinical team.
