NR599 PREPARATION TEST 2026
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS
GRADED A+
● Order sets, care plans and protocols. Answer: Structured approaches to
encourage correct and efficient ordering, promote evidence-based best
practices, and provide different management recommendations for
different patient situations.
● Parameter guideline. Answer: algorithms to promote correct entry of
orders and documentation.
● Critiques and "immediate warnings". Answer: Alerts that are presented
just after a user has entered an order, a prescription or a documentation
item, to show a potential hazard or a recommendation for further
information.
● Relevant data summaries. Answer: A single-patient view that
summarizes, organizes and filters a patient's information to highlight
important management issues.
● Multiple monitors. Answer: a display of activity among all patients on
a care unit, which helps providers prioritize tasks and ensures that
important activities are not omitted while providers are multitasking
among patients.
,● Predictive and retrospective analytics:. Answer: Analytic methods that
combine multiple factors using statistical and artificial intelligence
techniques to provide risk predictions, stratify patients and measure
progress on broad initiatives.
● "Info" buttons. Answer: filtered reference information and knowledge
resources within fields or "buttons" where info is provided to the end
user in the context of the current data display also referred to as
metadata, or "data about data".
● Expert workup and management advisers. Answer: Diagnostic and
expert systems that track and advise a patient workup and management
of the patient based on evidence-based protocols.
● Event-triggered alerts. Answer: Warnings triggered within the system
based on data that alert the clinical user to a new event occurring
asynchronously, such as an abnormal lab result.
● Reminders. Answer: Time-triggered events within the system
reminding the clinical user of a task needed to be based on
predetermined time within the system.
● clinical transformation. Answer: relative to workflow redesign; it is a
complete alteration of the clinical environment and should be used
cautiously to describe redesign efforts; transformation is defined as "a
, radical change approach that produces a more responsive organization
that is more capable of performing in unstable and changing
environments that organizations continue to be faced with";
- this would imply that the manner in which work is carried out and the
outcomes achieved are completely different from the prior state. which
is not always true when the change involves implementing technology
- technology can be used to launch or in conjunction with a clinical
transformation initiative but the implementation of technology alone is
not considered transformational.
-
● Optimization. Answer: - when workflow analysis occurs post
implementation, it is often referred to as ________________
- it is the process of moving conditions past their current states and into
more efficient and effective methods of performing tasks.
-it is considered to be the act, process, or methodology of making
something (as a design, system or decision) as fully perfect, functional,
and effective as possible.
● Process Analysis. Answer: breaking down the work process into a
sequential series of steps that can be examined and assessed to improve
effectiveness and efficiency; explains how work takes place, gets done,
or how it can be done.
