AI Article Synopsis
- Clinical judgment is crucial in nursing education, but traditional concept maps may not adequately develop these skills in students.
- A new concept mapping approach, based on established clinical judgment models and nursing theories, has been created to enhance learning.
- Positive student feedback indicates that this new method improves prioritization of care, simplifies complex information, and strengthens critical thinking and clinical judgment overall.
Article Abstract
Background: Clinical judgment is an essential component of nursing education and a necessary skill for entry-level nurses. The use of traditional concept maps may not encourage adequate clinical judgment skills in nursing students.
Method: Using the current NCLEX test plan, the National Council of State Boards of Nursing clinical judgment model, and the theoretical frameworks of Benner, Tanner, and Caputi, a new approach to concept mapping was developed.
Results: Student feedback is positive, pointing to increased ability to prioritize nursing care and simplifying a significant amount of complex information and improved critical thinking and clinical judgment.
Conclusion: This clinical concept map increases clinical judgment by assimilating and analyzing clinical information and integrating it into the nursing process. All components are on one sheet of paper, providing students with a succinct, global picture of nursing care. [J Nurs Educ. 2021;60(3):143-149.].

Necrotizing pancreatitis often demands intervention; contemporary management is directed by the step-up approach. Timing of intervention and specific approach is best directed by a multi-disciplinary team including advanced endosocpists, interventional radiologists, and surgeons with interest and experience managing this complex problem. The intervention is often a combination of percutaneous drainage, transluminal endoscopic approaches, and surgical debridement (minimally invasive or open).

Background: While expert optometrists tend to rely on a deep understanding of the disease and intuitive pattern recognition, those with less experience may depend more on extensive data, comparisons, and external guidance. Understanding these variations is important for developing artificial intelligence (AI) systems that can effectively support optometrists with varying degrees of experience and minimize decision inconsistencies.
Objective: The main objective of this study is to identify and analyze the variations in diagnostic decision-making approaches between novice and expert optometrists.
