A great amount of evidence link the availability of more nursing time per patient-day with better patient outcomes. [1], [2], [3], [4]. However, increased nurse workload and the growing nursing workforce shortage [5] reduce the amount of nursing time available for patient care activities. To add to the problem, nurses have to deal with several different devices to input data. Therefore, reducing the number of devices nurses have to interact with and automating the input of data to a larger extent will maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of nurses.

Nurses have so many different equipments to
manipulate
Spend too much time adapting new
technologies even though they are willing to
Nurses could only do the documentation long after
their observations
Nurses have no chance to document records in
patient room
Too many equipments shared will result in
infection
Hands are occupied carrying the portable
device

Solutions Requirements
•Nurses need not carry devices in their hands
•Data input should be automated as much as possible
•Minimize infections from spreading across rooms
Preliminary Solutions
•Data input stations available inside every ICU room
•Wearable Computing Device

Room Integrated Computing Device
In-Wall Docking System
Solutions
- Device(Mobile Clinical Assistant) mounts in the wall- After device is inserted, if the user press send button, the patient information send to nurse station automatically- Available pull out the device from the wall
