- Abstract
Background and Purpose: Using remote visual monitoring (RVM) technology to observe patients at high risk for falls can effectively reduce falls and sitter costs. However, RVM is underutilized by direct care nurses. This study describes the development and testing of a new tool to measure nurses' acceptance of RVM technology. Methods: The RVM Acceptance Tool (RVMAT) was tested among nurses recruited from a large health system. Results: Three factors accounted for 70.38% of the total variance: Value, Patient Selection, and Availability and Intent to Use. The overall 25-item scale had good internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha =.98). Conclusion: The RVMAT is a theoretically grounded, valid, and reliable tool. Further research is needed to test its use in predicting nurses' acceptance and intent to incorporate new technology into daily nursing care.
