Abstract
In a era of cost constraints, patient-centered computing enhances communication of patient data among disciplines, facilitates efficiency and, most importantly, fosters quality patient care. The patient-centered care approach organizes diagnostic activities and care protocols based upon the particular patient’s needs [1]. Computerized patient records which focus upon patient problems/nursing diagnoses can demonstrate linkages between patient conditions, interventions, and outcomes.
