About the Lab

Professor Seo-yeon Park's research lab focuses on health informatics, nursing informatics, and patient-centered health technology design. The lab investigates how electronic health records, mobile health applications, and co-design methodologies can improve clinical decision-making and patient outcomes by integrating nurses’ and patients’ perspectives. Key research directions include the development of person-centered assessment tools (e.g., MyStrengths + MyHealth), optimizing health information systems for nursing practice, and enhancing health literacy through evidence-based interventions in vulnerable populations such as children with language impairments.

Sripriya Rajamani, Robin Austin, Elena Geiger‐Simpson, Ratchada Jantraporn, Suhyun Park, Karen A. Monsen
SJR Q1JMIR NursingOA

BACKGROUND: The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted an interest in whole-person health and emotional well-being. Informatics solutions through user-friendly tools such as mobile health apps offer immense value. Prior research developed a consumer-facing app MyStrengths + MyHealth using Simplified Omaha System Terms (SOST) to assess whole-person health. The MyStrengths + MyHealth app assesses strengths, challenges, and needs (SCN) for 42 concepts across four domains (My Living, My Mind and Networks, M

Exploratory Co-Design on Electronic Health Record Nursing Summaries: Case Study
Suhyun Park, Jenna L. Marquard, Robin Austin, Christie L. Martin, David S. Pieczkiewicz, Connie W Delaney
SJR Q2JMIR Formative ResearchOA

Background: Although electronic health record nursing summaries aim to provide a concise overview of patient data, they often fall short of meeting nurses' information needs, leading to underutilization. This gap arises from a lack of involvement of nurses in the design of health information technologies. Objective: The purpose of this exploratory co-design case study was to solicit insights from nurses regarding nursing summary design considerations, including key information types and the pref

Journal of speech-language & hearing disorders

목적 : 본 연구에서는 동일한 어휘 노출 강도에서 단순언어장애아동과 일반아동의 어휘 학습에 어떠한 차이가 있는지 알아보고, 책읽기를 통한 어휘 학습에서 단순언어장애아동에게 효과적인 어휘 노출 강도를 찾고자 한다. 방법 : 4-5세 단순언어장애아동 3명과 생활 연령을 일치시킨 일반아동 4명을 대상으로 총 7명에게 중재를 실시하였다. 중재는 주 3회, 회기 당 40분씩 진행하였다. 회기는 30분의 책읽기 프로그램과 10분의 어휘 테스트로 구성되었다. 책읽기를 통한 어휘 중재를 하는 동안 아동들에게 24개의 목표 어휘를 설정하여, 각 어휘를 총 48번 반복 노출하였다. 목표 어휘의 학습 양상을 파악하기 위해, 4번의 수용 어휘와 표현 어휘 검사를 실시하였고, 정의하기 검사는 사전, 사후에 총 2회 실시하였다. 결과 : 맨-휘트니 U 검정 결과, 단순언어장애아동 집단은 일반아동 집단보다 표현 어휘 및 정의하기 과제에서 유의하게 낮은 수행을 보여주었다. 그러나 단순언어장애아동 집단은 표현 어

Nurse-centered co-design of an electronic health record nursing summary
Suhyun Park, Jenna L. Marquard
SJR Q1Human Factors in HealthcareOA

An Electronic health record nursing summary has the potential to support nurses in locating and synthesizing patient information. However, nurses’ role-specific perspectives are often excluded in the design of the EHR system. The purpose of this study was to describe nurses’ current use of nursing summaries and vital sign information within it and glean their ideas for design improvements. This research followed Nielsen and Norman's 4-phased design cycle and focused on the discovery and explorat

SJR Q3Studies in health technology and informaticsOA

In the rapidly evolving landscape of modern healthcare, nurses must proficiently navigate data utilization and grasp the principles of data science. Despite this urgency, nursing stakeholders currently do not fully understand the extent of data literacy or data science literacy they need to acquire. This paper aims to elucidate the distinctions between data literacy and data science literacy, offering insights into strategies for nurturing these competencies within nursing education, research, a

STANDARDIZED NURSING LANGUAGE—KNOWLEDGE-BASED CLINICAL DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM MODULE FOR LONG TERM CARE NURSES
Juh Hyun Shin, Chung Hyuk Park, Myungeun Lee, Soo‐Kyoung Lee, Crystel L. Farina, Suhyun Park, Burton Korer, Melissa Batchelor‐Murphy
SJR Q1Innovation in AgingOA

Abstract Clinical decision support systems (CDSS) integrate patient health information with clinical expertise to guide referrals, reduce prescription medication errors, and ensure adherence to guidelines. Standardized nursing languages, such as NANDA-I (North American Nursing Diagnosis Association International), NIC (Nursing Interventions Classification), and NOC (Nursing Outcomes Classification), enhance evidence-based practice by providing essential diagnostic and outcome data. However, the

Electronic health record competency is essential for safe nursing practice, yet academic curricula lack comprehensive, structured assessment tools aligned with competency-based frameworks. This quality improvement study developed and evaluated the psychometric properties of the Electronic Health Record Competency Survey based on the LEARN-EHR Model and PRACTICE Framework. The psychometric evaluation occurred in 2 steps. First, a panel of 10 experts evaluated the content validity of the 24 compet

SJR Q2Applied Clinical InformaticsOA

While nursing summaries in electronic health records are used for initial orientation to a patient's status, research on nurses' use of these summaries remains scarce. This case study conducted an eye-tracking simulation to identify (1) key information types (orders, vital signs, etc.), (2) frequently paired information types, and (3) common sequential patterns of information types within nursing summaries as nurses review simulated patient cases.We recruited 33 medical-surgical nurses from a un

SJR Q2CIN Computers Informatics Nursing

Standardized nursing languages help nurses articulate issues with patients, forming the groundwork for the selection of nursing interventions aimed at achieving outcomes. However, the application of standardized nursing linkages on nursing processes and nursing home residents' outcomes, as well as the identification of facility and resident factors, remains unexplored. The purpose of this study was to examine nursing home facility and resident factors on the use of NANDA, Nursing Interventions C
