D220 pre-test part 2 Solutions
A heparin medication error and a subsequent failure mode effects analysis (FMEA)
results in the purchase of smart pumps. How do smart pumps reduce the potential for
medication errors? - ANS-Dosing limits and alerts are provided.
Mobile health (mHealth) apps have demonstrated benefits to patients by increasing
engagement and participation in care. What is a benefit for clinicians? - ANS-Integrates
with electronic health records (EHRs)
A facility has noted a decrease in revenue related to inaccuracies in coding. A nurse
recommends computer-assisted coding (CAC) as a solution. What is the financial
benefit of CAC? - ANS-CAC improves coding accuracy.
A nurse manager is informed that bedside nurses have begun using a workaround for
scanning a patient's armband prior to medication administration. The nurse manager
finds that several patients are missing armbands and that their armbands are connected
to their bed frames. What is the nurse manager's first course of action for this
workaround to bedside-scanning technology? - ANS-Question nursing staff about what
issues have caused this
Currently, a facility uses phones and pagers for clinician communication. This
technology is due for replacement. A nurse recommends replacing with all-in-one
mobile devices. What is the benefit of all-in-one mobile technology over the current
devices? - ANS-It integrates functionality within the EHR.
A nurse in a primary care provider's office needs to review results from a patient's
cardiology consultation. Using health information exchange (HIE) technology, the nurse
requests this information from the cardiologist's office. Which type of exchange is
described? - ANS-Query based
An informatics nurse is working on genomics data to facilitate disease identification and
develop individualized treatment plans for patients in a complex medical facility. What is
considered a fundamental requirement for valid interpretation of genomics data? -
ANS-High throughput computing system
