Computer use in staff development. A national survey.

Abstract

The Informatics Task Force of the National Nursing Staff Development Organization (NNSDO) conducted a national survey soliciting information about computer use in staff development. More than 600 members responded to the survey, suggesting that informatics and the issues surrounding nurses' use of computers are of concern to many staff development professionals. Responses from focus groups held at the National Nursing Staff Development Organization annual convention provided additional input. The results of the survey and discussion sessions have implications for preparing nurse educators for the specialty practice of staff development in the future.

Wireless connectivity for health and sports monitoring: a review.

This is a review of health and sports monitoring research that uses or could benefit from wireless connectivity. New, enabling wireless connectivity standards are evaluated for their suitability, and an assessment of current exploitation of these technologies is summarised. An example of the application is given, highlighting the capabilities of a network of wireless sensors. Issues of timing and power consumption in a battery-powered system are addressed to highlight the benefits networking can provide, and a suggestion of how monitoring different biometric signals might allow one to gain additional information about an athlete or patient is made.
