The authors of this article discuss a literature review regarding opportunities to align health information technology with the collaborative care model to improve the quality of care for patients with chronic diseases. Bauer and her colleagues stress that traditional care models hinder the use of technology. Health information technology can assist in accomplishing the goals of the collaborative care model by sharing electronic health records, as well as utilizing mobile health and standardized tools across health care disciplines to improve the quality of patient care.

Drawz and his colleagues discuss strategies to improve the interoperability of electronic health record systems to optimize detection of kidney dysfunction which can enhance treatment of this disease. Furthermore, the authors suggest standardizing data regarding patient laboratory testing, risk factors, comorbidities, treatments, and education in the electronic health record and ensuring the information is readily accessible by the entire health care team. Chronic kidney disease is associated with significant morbidly and mortality. Nurses can assist in improving electronic health record systems by standardizing data entry to significantly improve the quality of care for this patient population.
Drawz and his colleagues are professionals from across the United States with support from the National Institute of Health, and all authors meet this organization’s criteria for authorship. The intended audience includes nephrologists, primary care physicians, pharmacists, nurses, dietitians, and health information analysts. Nurses must become change agents to improve chronic disease management, including chronic kidney …show more content…

The authors of this article provide readers a brief overview regarding the use of electronic health records to improve the quality of cardiovascular patient care, including disease prevention and chronic disease management. Roumia and Steinhubl discuss several studies that support the use of clinical informatics to incorporate automated or decision support tools which identify patients with increased risk of cardiovascular disease, or in need of treatment for risk factors, such as diabetes, hypertension, and hyperlipidemia.
Roumia and Steinhubl are cardiologists interested in improving patient care using technology. The intended audience of this article may include, organizational leaders, physicians, nurses, and health information system analysts relating the opportunity to improve the quality of patient care by creating electronic assessment tools to monitor risk factors and current evidence-based treatments for cardiovascular diseases. Nurses must drive change and develop innovative ideas to improve health care using
