Advanced Practice Nurse-Led Research: Challenges and Approaches to Digital Health Programs' Evaluation Using Big Data

Abstract

Advanced practice nurse leaders are in key positions within health systems to provide time and resources for implementation and evaluation of digital health services. As virtual monitoring programs become more embedded within nursing, nurse leaders and educators need to ensure that nurses are prepared to work within interprofessional teams to administer and evaluate them. This article discusses challenges and implementation strategy considerations for data curation and analysis using large datasets from the Medicaid population for research.
