DINAMAP
Design- battery charged, must be plugged, mobile. use for adult, pediatrics, and neonatal. VS includes BP, HR, Temperature, pulse oximeter. each VS component has a wire that connects to the machine. works with the touch oaf a button.
Needs- vital signs monitoring, enable more time for patient care, fast and use to use.
Constrains- VS readings may be inaccurate compared to manual, wires may be a safety hazard in patient rooms. wheels make noise which is bothersome to patient especially at night shift while patients are sleeping. this leads to patient dissatisfaction.
3 physical object or sample for the audience would be:
Have the audience connecting the wires to the machine
Taking vital signs on each other using the Dinamap
provide a brochure that includes the design, function, and hygiene between patient care
How would you use these in the kind of situations described in either DiNardo 2015 or Eagle 2016?
According to Eagle (2016), as nurses we know what we could live with and what could impact patient care as we are in and out of patient rooms. For instance, to reduce noise and increase patient satisfaction, I would make the dinamap wheel of a different material such as plastic.
