In 2013, the University of Minnesota School of Nursing initiated a conference to develop a National Action Plan, bringing together diverse stakeholders to create a common vision for implementing and effectively using sharable and comparable nurse-generated and contextual data. The vision is to have better health through inclusion of standardized nursing data integrated with other health professions. Data is from electronic health records (EHRs) and other information systems. Reuse of EHR and other data for quality improvement and research can lead to breakthroughs for individual, family, community, and population health.<\/p>\n

At the third annual Nursing Knowledge: Big Data Science conference, held June 3\u20135, 2015, presenters reported the results of 10 projects influencing the creation and use of sharable and comparable nursing data. The projects involved nurses from practice, academia, research, industry, and professional organizations. The conference proceedings, soon to be published, will include all conference activities as well as recommendations for 2015-2016 projects that will evolve through collaborative work over this next year. For further information, all presentations from the 2013, 2014, and 2015 conferences can be found on the UMN\u2019s School of Nursing<\/a> website.<\/p>\n
