AI Article Synopsis
- Logbooks are aggregate databases that registered nurses (RNs) mostly manage, but many RNs may not know their full importance and various uses.
- L&D logs, in particular, serve as crucial sources of vital birth statistics for medical records staff.
- The data collected in these logs help in reporting statistics, analyzing trends, and planning future care for pregnant women.
Article Abstract
Logbooks can be considered aggregate databases that registered nurses (RNs) have the primary responsibility of completing in most health care settings. However, RNs may be unaware of the many uses for the information contained in logbooks and the importance of these entries (Paine et al., 1988). Labor and delivery (L&D) logs provide an essential source of vital statistics birth data for the medical records staff. These data bits are used for reporting statistics, projecting trends, and planning future care for pregnant women.

Defining the cardiac surgical learning curve: a longitudinal cumulative analysis of a surgeon's experience and performance monitoring in the first decade of practice.

Background: Individual surgeons' learning curves are a crucial factor impacting patient outcomes. While many studies investigate procedure-specific learning curves, very few carried out a longitudinal analysis of individual cardiac surgeons over the course of their career. Given the evolving landscape of cardiac surgery with the introduction of transcatheter and robotic procedures, a contemporary evaluation of the cardiac surgical learning curve is justified and a method of personal performance monitoring is proposed in this study.
