Join us as Nicole Wilson, MSN, RN, CPHIMS – Associate Director, Medical Affairs, BD discusses the role of nursing informatics in medical device innovation.
Clinical informaticists are essential partners in the development of medical devices and are accountable for being the voice of the end-users and patients. Nurses and clinicians have been using infusion pumps to deliver intravenous fluids and medications since the late 1960s. The technology has improved significantly over the decades with microprocessors, wireless connectivity, and interoperability. Advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning could further enhance infusion pump safety. Nursing informaticists bring a wealth of expertise to support innovating medical devices such as infusion pumps for safe medication delivery.
