Thirty-two predictors identified from previous research were matched to electronic medical records.

Model performance was assessed using the F1 score, accuracy, and area under the precision-recall curve. Key predictors were identified using permutation-based feature importance. The random forest model performed best, with an F1 score of 0.86, an accuracy of 0.95, and an area under the precision-recall curve of 0.90. Important predictors included late fever on postoperative days 4-7, postoperative pain management, operating time, age, and perioperative blood transfusion. The model demonstrated strong performance in predicting postoperative complications by incorporating insights of nurses throughout factor selection and model development.

When integrated with electronic medical records (EMR), they support a closed-loop medication management system. This study evaluates the impact of EMR-smart pump interoperability on patient safety and user acceptability in a multicenter Australian health service. A comparative study was conducted using baseline data from a tertiary hospital without smart pump integration (December 2021 to July 2022) and post-implementation data from the newly established digital cardiac hospital (March 2023 to December 2023). Both sites utilized a coronary care-specific medication library to ensure consistency. The evaluation focused on key indicators such as medication library compliance, the frequency of pump reprogramming and high-risk medication alerts, the number of keystrokes required for programming, and the rate of alert overrides. An anonymous survey captured nursing staff perceptions related to satisfaction, workflow efficiency, and confidence in using the pump systems. Following the implementation EMR-smart pump interoperability, medication library compliance improved significantly, rising from 93% to 97%, P <.0001. Alerts related to pump reprogramming and high-risk medications also increased, suggesting enhanced safety monitoring. At the same time, programming became more efficient, with the average number of keystrokes required dropping from 13±3.4 to 3±1.2, P <.0001. However, despite these gains, survey responses revealed a decline in clinician's perceived ease of use (from 90% to 45%, P <.0001) and confidence in programming (93% to 65%, P <.0001). While the rate of cancelled infusions alerts (20% vs. 14%, P <.0001) and all other nonspecific pump alerts (23% vs. 16%, P <.0001) reduced. The integration of EMR-smart pump interoperability enhances medication safety by increasing the frequency of clinical alerts and reducing manual data entry. However, this advancement may introduce usability challenges that impact staff confidence and workflow. These findings highlight the importance of balancing technological integration with user experience to optimize patient safety outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":520598,"journal":{"name":"Computers, informatics, nursing : CIN","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2026-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147477885","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite advances, gaps persist in understanding the role of artificial intelligence tools across diverse settings and their integration into clinical workflows. The aim of this integrative review was to evaluate artificial intelligence's potential to enhance triage efficiency and accuracy, guided by the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Systems Thinking Approach. CINAHL, PubMed, Ovid Medline, EBSCOhost, and IEEE Xplore were searched, identifying 283 articles, refined to 20 through exclusions for duplicates, abstracts, and relevance. Retrospective cohort designs predominated, complemented by cross-sectional, prospective, and observational studies spanning global contexts. The key message was that artificial intelligence tools significantly outperformed traditional triage methods like the Emergency Severity Index (ESI). Findings revealed artificial intelligence predicted critical outcomes (eg, mortality, intensive care unit admissions), reduced mistriage rates, and leveraged diverse data (structured and unstructured), though challenges like limited generalizability and data quality remain.
