EPIC ANE350 COMPLETE (2026 | 2027) EXAM TEST WITH LATEST UPDATED
(QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS) ALREADY PASSED!!
Question 1
If your providers want a new flowsheet to appear when they click the "Position" button in the
toolkit, what is the first logical step in the build process?
A) Link the button to a User Role
B) Create a new Flowsheet Template (FLT) or modify an existing one
C) Create a new Profile record
D) Modify the Intraprocedure Activity record
E) Edit the Chronicles master file for Devices
Correct Answer: B) Create a new flowsheet (or modify an existing one).
Rationale: Before any buttons or menus can be linked, the actual documentation tool (the
flowsheet) must exist. Once the flowsheet is created or modified, it can then be attached to
the Button (E2U) and subsequently added to the Toolkit (Menu E2U).
Question 2
To ensure an updated "Position" button appears for the correct users, where must the updated
Toolkit (Menu E2U) be listed?
A) The Device Group (FDV)
B) The System Definitions (LSD)
C) The User Role or Intraprocedure Activity
D) The SmartForm Component
E) The Medication Preference List
Correct Answer: C) Make sure the updated Toolkit (Menu E2U) is listed in the appropriate
User Role(s) or Intraprocedure Activity.
Rationale: Toolkits are assigned at the User Role or Activity level. If the updated menu isn't
linked to these records, the end user will continue to see the old version of the toolkit
regardless of the button build.
Question 3
When configuring a flowsheet template to open in the Intraprocedure Activity, how do you
prevent a timeline from appearing at the top of the flowsheet?
A) Set the context to "Over-time"
B) Link it to a SmartData Element
C) Mark the "Single Column Template" checkbox on the Display Form
D) Attach it to a filing extension
E) Disable the "Timeline View" in the Profile
Correct Answer: C) In the Flowsheet Template, on the Display Form, mark Single Column
Template.
Rationale: Marking a template as a Single Column Template tells the system that data is
collected at a single point in time (like a checklist), which negates the need for a
chronological timeline display common in over-time vitals flowsheets.

Question 4
In an E2U button record used for the Anesthesia Toolkit, which field is used to attach the specific
flowsheet template that should open?
A) Button Label
B) Tooltip
C) Message Params
D) Extension
E) Report Selection
Correct Answer: C) Message Params
Rationale: The "Message Params" field in the E2U record acts as the "payload" or
instruction for the button. By entering the flowsheet ID here, the system knows which
record to launch when the button is clicked.
Question 5
In which record is the configuration for Line-Drain-Airway (LDA) availability managed for the
Intraprocedure Activity?
A) Flowsheet Row (FLO)
B) Profile (LPR)
C) User Role (E2U)
D) Device Type (FDV)
E) Registry Metric
Correct Answer: B) Profile
Rationale: The Profile record (LPR) controls activity-specific settings for Anesthesia. This
includes which LDAs are available for documentation within the Intraprocedure Activity.
Question 6
Which tool in Hyperspace is defined as a customizable form that uses point-and-click
documentation for clinical data gathering?
A) SmartText
B) SmartForm
C) SmartPhrase
D) Flowsheet
E) Timeline Section
Correct Answer: B) SmartForm
Rationale: SmartForms are highly customizable, visual forms used in Epic for structured
data entry. They differ from flowsheets in their layout and ability to use complex scripting
and visual components.
Question 7
The Anesthesia Block documentation utilizes a specific type of SmartForm. What is it?
A) Pre-Evaluation Form
, 3
B) Patient Education Form
C) Procedure SmartBlock
D) Vitals Graphic
E) Intake/Output Form
Correct Answer: C) Procedure SmartBlock
Rationale: Anesthesia documentation uses different SmartForm "types" to dictate where
they appear. The Anesthesia Block specifically requires the "Procedure SmartBlock" type
to function correctly within the clinical workflow.
Question 8
Why is the "Type" of a SmartForm considered a critical configuration step?
A) It determines the color of the form
B) It dictates where and how the SmartForm can be used in the system
C) It limits the number of components allowed
D) It determines if the form can be used by nurses
E) It assigns the form to a specific department
Correct Answer: B) It dictates where and how a SmartForm can be used.
Rationale: SmartForm types (like Procedure SmartBlock vs. Pre-Evaluation) act as filters.
A form built with the wrong type will not appear in the intended activity, such as the Block
activity or the Pre-op evaluation activity.
Question 9
What is the term for an item on a SmartForm, such as a checkbox or a drop-down menu, used to
capture information?
A) Variable
B) Statement
C) Component
D) Extension
E) Parameter
Correct Answer: C) Component
Rationale: Components are the building blocks of a SmartForm. They are the interactive
elements that users click or type into to record data.
Question 10
Information captured in a SmartForm is stored in Chronicles using which type of custom item?
A) SmartPhrase
B) SmartData Elements
C) Flowsheet Rows
D) Data Metrics
E) Extension Parameters
Correct Answer: B) SmartData Elements
, 4
Rationale: SmartData Elements (SDEs) are the specific data points that allow SmartForm
selections to be saved into the database (Chronicles). Unlike standard items, they can be
created by builders without deep coding knowledge.
Question 11
In a single-select list on a SmartForm, why is only one SmartData Element needed despite there
being multiple options in the list?
A) Options are stored in Flowsheets instead
B) Single-select lists do not store data
C) The SmartData Element only stores the one value selected from the list
D) The system automatically creates a new SDE for every click
E) Single-select lists use SmartPhrases for storage
Correct Answer: C) Because this is a Single-Select List. The SmartData Element will only be
storing one value from the list, so we only need one SmartData Element.
Rationale: An SDE represents a data field. In a single-select scenario, that field only ever
holds one value at a time (the chosen option), so multiple SDEs would be redundant.
Question 12
What is the primary function of a Text Generation Template in Anesthesia documentation?
A) To create a PDF of the flowsheet
B) To translate SmartForm documentation into human-readable note text
C) To send a page to the attending physician
D) To calculate the BMI of the patient
E) To apply a macro to the vitals flowsheet
Correct Answer: B) Translate your SmartForm into note text
Rationale: While SmartForms are good for data entry, clinicians need a narrative note for
the record. The Text Generation Template looks at the SDEs filled in on the SmartForm
and converts them into a text-based note.
Question 13
True or False: Every Anesthesia Block SmartForm configured should have a corresponding Text
Generation Template.
A) True
B) False
Correct Answer: A) True
Rationale: Text Generation Templates are necessary for the creation of notes from a
SmartForm. Without it, the data entered into the SmartForm would not be able to generate
the narrative "Block Note."
Question 14
A Text Generation Template is composed of multiple "Statements." How are these defined?
