INNOVATION AND FUTURE DIRECTION IN CHRONIC CARE NURSING: UTILIZATION OF RESEARCH AND TECHNOLOGY IN CLINICAL PRACTICE

Nursing as a profession is required to develop its knowledge as a concern in improving the welfare of mankind both in pre-clinical and clinical settings. To be able to develop its knowledge, nursing is required to be responsive to any changes in any circumstances at any time. It also can not be separatedfrom the various changes, such as technology, numerous of disease types as well as techniques of nursing intervention. The existance of various changes that occur will lead to various trends and issues that require improving in nursing care. 

Recent statistics demonstrated an increasing trend of chronic disease incidence and prevalence, either in developing or developed countries. A report by World Health Organization (WHO) predicted that by 2020 non-communicable diseases such as heart diseases, cancer, and metabolic diseases will contribute to 70% of mortalities. This percentage highlight the urgency of developing the management of chronic illness. It is essential for healthcare professions to strengthen their science and quality of practice.
