The role of medical records in enhancing collaboration between nurses and physicians
Keywords:
Electronic Health Records, Health Information, Clinical Information System, Nurses, Doctors, PatientsAbstract
Background: Effective patient records both paper-based and more recent electronic health records (HER) are crucial in enhancing the relationship between the nurse and the physician. Facilitating communication and co-ordination but have had challenges which affects their efficiency. Aim: This study aims at examining the benefits of medical records on collaboration and its specific effects and significance on communication, patient care and staff productivity, with regards to opportunities and barriers there. Methods: A total of 23 quantitative and qualitative studies published between 2019 and 2022 were selected from databases such as PubMed and Science Direct, and analyzed based on the following thematic areas: EHR adoption, and interprofessional collaboration. Results: Health records allow greater Insight into the patient’s details, also provide better and more consistent means of sharing valuable Information, all while furthering those involved in the decision-making process. However, concerns such as data security, user training, and system compatibility act as barriers to the full implementation of the system. Conclusion: Health records are very relevant in promoting interprofessional relations In the health sector.
