What Tools and Frameworks Support Clinical Decision-Making?
Several tools and frameworks can aid nurses in making clinical decisions:
- Clinical Pathways: Standardized care plans that outline the expected course of treatment for specific conditions. - Evidence-Based Practice (EBP): Integrating the best available evidence, clinical expertise, and patient preferences to make decisions. - Decision Support Systems (DSS): Computer-based systems that provide nurses with evidence-based recommendations and guidelines.
