About this book

Nursing Informatics and the Foundation of Knowledge, 6th Edition (2024) by Dee McGonigle and Kathleen Mastrian continues to help nursing students make sense of nursing informatics in an easy-to-follow, pedagogically rich approach. Published by Jones & Bartlett Learning, this award-winning nursing textbook is a practical guide to using modern technology efficiently and effectively in today's healthcare system — teaching students how to acquire, process, and disseminate knowledge in clinical practice.

The authors use their unique Foundation of Knowledge Model throughout the text as an organizational structure by which to learn and teach nursing informatics. This comprehensive framework guides students through the basic building blocks of nursing informatics — nursing science, information science, computer science, and cognitive science — before diving into current technologies, tools, and trends shaping nursing practice.

The updated Sixth Edition provides nurse educators with the tools needed to transfer the knowledge their students need to succeed in the information age. Rich learning features — including Case Studies, Working Wisdom, and Application Scenarios — demonstrate how informatics technologies are applied in real-world practice, linking information and knowledge management within a meaningful clinical context.

Topics covered: foundations of nursing informatics; theoretical frameworks; the science of knowledge and knowledge management; computer science basics for nurses; systems theory and systems development life cycle (SDLC); electronic health records (EHR) and clinical documentation; standardized terminologies including NANDA, NIC, NOC, SNOMED CT, ICD-11, and LOINC; clinical decision support systems; telehealth and telemedicine; mobile health (mHealth) and wearable devices; artificial intelligence and machine learning in nursing; data science and big data in healthcare; health information exchange and interoperability; privacy, security, and HIPAA compliance; nursing research and evidence-based practice informatics; consumer health informatics; informatics competencies including the ANA and QSEN standards; and leadership in nursing informatics.

Essential for: BSN, MSN, DNP, and PhD nursing programs; nursing informatics specialty tracks; ANCC Nursing Informatics Certification (RN-BC) exam preparation; nurse educators designing informatics curriculum; clinical nurse leaders; chief nursing informatics officers (CNIOs); and practicing nurses transitioning into informatics roles.
