I am in a class called Communications and the Lierature of Science and Technology. I need to do a research paper in my field of nursing that has to do with science and technology. Please help me with ideas. I have to start this research asap as it is due in 2 weeks and I also have t prepare a speech for it to give in 2 weeks as well. Thanks!!
how about "let's not forget the patient"?
in this vastly technological age, we often depend on the equipment at hand and forget that it's a vulnerable human being we're addressing...you could research on how these technical interventions impact patient care. i've seen too many nurses depend on those darned oximeters, see a reading and either assume everything is fine or not...w/o assessing the patient themself. much luck to you.

what about the use of PDA's in the clinical area? How do people get around HIPPA rules? Security? What is the value of staff using PDA's? Risk of infection transmission? Do they really save time? How much does it cost to train staff to use them? Any good software? Would home health nurses find more use for them than hospital staff????
