What are the Challenges Associated with Complex Medical Devices?
The use of complex medical devices in nursing comes with several challenges:
- Training and Competency: Ensuring all nursing staff are adequately trained can be resource-intensive. - Integration with Other Systems: Devices often need to integrate with Electronic Health Records (EHR) and other hospital systems, which can be complicated. - Cost: Advanced devices are often expensive, and the cost of training staff adds to the financial burden. - User Interface: Devices with complicated interfaces can be difficult to use, leading to potential errors.
