for a patient?
Template (Flowsheet templates, Flowsheet tabs) - correct answer Used to organize different

documentation together.
FLT master file - correct answer Each flowsheet template is a record in which master file?
FLO master file - correct answer Groups & Rows are records in which master file?
Group (Flowsheet Group) - correct answer Used to organize individual documentation
flowsheet rows; appears as a darker row color/bold font in the flowsheet activity.
Row (Flowsheet Row) - correct answer Where data is documented; designed to hold specific
data; appears as a lighter row color in the flowsheet activity.
Doc Flowsheet Builder - correct answer The administrators home menu when building
flowsheets.

how they should format it; determined by the row type.

Details Report - correct answer Shows extra information about the flowsheet on the right side;
min & max values, who documented, etc.
Table of Contents - correct answer To the left of the flowsheet; shows the available
templates/tabs.
Within the open group/row record (in the doc flowsheet builder). - correct answer Where do
you link rows to a group?
Within the open template record (in the doc flowsheet builder). - correct answer Where do you
link groups to a template?
The group form in a flowsheet group record. - correct answer Where do you specify all the rows
that should normally show up in a group by default?
Start Removed (mark them as start removed). - correct answer How do you have groups added
on a template that should not appear by default/added by clinicians as needed?
Topics - correct answer Organizes similar groups together in the table of contents so clinicians
can easily navigate to that part of the flowsheet template.
From the bottom up, but with a slight variation:
-at a high level, to build most flowsheet rows:
1. Create a placeholder flowsheet group record
2. Build all the rows to appear on the flowsheet (build row records & set the group as
"preferred")
3. Attach the rows to groups created in Step 1
4. Build the flowsheet template & attach groups to it - correct answer In what order should you
build a flowsheet?
,In Hyperspace (in Flowsheets FLT & FLO) - correct answer Where are all flowsheet records built,
edited, & accessed?
Preface all group record names with "G" and preface all row record names with "R." - correct
answer How should you distinguish between groups and rows in the FLO record?
A Row Type of Flowsheet Group. - correct answer When building a basic flowsheet group (aka
one not used for LDAs or med intake), what category of Row Type should you use?
True - correct answer True or False. Updating the Row Type for a record can alter what you can
or cannot do within it.
The max/min fields prevent impossible values from being entered; the warning max/warning
min fields help to alert clinicians of abnormal values. - correct answer Explain the difference
between Maximum/Minimum fields vs. Warning Maximum/Warning Minimum fields.
Preferred group - correct answer A setting within a row record that indicates what group a row
should be added to if the row is added to a flowsheet on its own; does NOT add the row to the
group, just says what group is should appear in.
Drops to the bottom of the flowsheet in the OTHER group. - correct answer What happens if
the preferred group is left blank?
After all rows are created, you list them within the group record itself. - correct answer How do
you LINK the rows into the group?
Build groups first and add them as preferred groups when building rows. - correct answer
Because both rows & groups link out to groups, what build is most efficient?
Flowsheet Row
Flowsheet Group
Flowsheet Template - correct answer What are the three (3) main records needed to build a
flowsheet?
The group is not listed as preferred within the row record. - correct answer The nurse opens
flowsheet template & Add Row; after making a selection, the row he chooses drops to the
bottom under OTHER; why?
The flowsheet has Restrict Rows set within the template record. - correct answer Why could a
user be unable to add a group using Add Row?
When they are ready to be used in production. - correct answer When should flowsheet
records be released?
To preserve data integrity; altering certain fields would change the fundamental behavior of the
row. - correct answer Why are some fields uneditable once the row is released?
, Min/Max - correct answer What setting restricts the end user from entering an out of range
temperature such as 200 or 1000?
Create a new version- as long as you do not need to change the row type or value type. -
correct answer What do you do if you need to edit a released version of a row?
Retire the row & create a new one. - correct answer What do you do if you need to change the
row type or value type of a row?
Units section - correct answer What setting lets the administrator build "per minute" or etc. to
be seen when hovering over a value?
Start removed - correct answer When checked, indicates groups that are part of the template
but only accessible by a manual Add Rows (not provided by default).
Allow remove? - correct answer When checked, indicates the user can manually remove the
group from the template.
Log completely out of Hyperspace & then back in again. - correct answer What do you have to
do to update Restrict Rows in Hyperspace?
Flowsheet groups & rows are all records in the same master file (FLO); they begin as "blank"
FLO records & only become a group or row when you assign them a row type. - correct answer
Why use the same field to create both groups and rows?
The Start Removed property - correct answer Which property of a flowsheet row takes
precedence over its preferred group?
Building the template & adding the appropriate groups; because all groups must be build
before a template can be finished. - correct answer What is the largest piece of flowsheet build
and why?
Preferred Group - correct answer The group in which a row should appear if someone adds the
row individually to a flowsheet; not the same as attaching the row to the group.
Warning Min/Max - correct answer Values below/above these numbers generate a warning flag
in the flowsheet cell.
Released - correct answer Indicates the record can be used in a production environment with
real patient data; causes certain fields to grey out, aka become uneditable.
Cascading - correct answer Functionality that automatically adds, or prompts you to add,
specific flowsheet rows & groups to a flowsheet template when a value in a row meets a
specified condition.
It appears at the bottom under Other. - correct answer If NOT in the group record, what
happens when you add a row manually to a flowsheet using the Add Rows button?
