,1. Multiple Choice: Which of the following is a primary
benefit of using electronic health records (EHRs) in nursing
care?
a) Reduced need for patient interaction
b) Enhanced communication between care team
members
c) Increased time for documentation
d) Decreased access to patient history
Answer: b) Enhanced communication between care team
members
Rationale: EHRs facilitate better communication among
the members of the healthcare team, which can improve
care coordination and patient outcomes.
2. Fill-in-the-Blank: The process of systematically reviewing
clinical data to determine the best course of action for
patient care is known as __________.
Answer: Clinical decision-making
Rationale: Clinical decision-making is a fundamental skill
in nursing informatics, where nurses use data and
evidence-based practices to make informed decisions about
patient care.
3. True/False: Big data analytics can predict patient
outcomes with 100% accuracy.
Answer: False
Rationale: While big data analytics significantly improve
the prediction of patient outcomes, they cannot achieve
100% accuracy due to the complexity and variability of
human health.

, 4. Multiple Response: Select all that apply. Which of the
following are key components of a nursing informatics
infrastructure?
a) Interoperability standards
b) Cybersecurity measures
c) Paper-based documentation
d) Data mining techniques
e) User-friendly interfaces
Answers: a) Interoperability standards, b) Cybersecurity
measures, d) Data mining techniques, e) User-friendly
interfaces
Rationale: A robust nursing informatics infrastructure
includes interoperability standards for seamless data
exchange, cybersecurity measures to protect patient
information, data mining techniques for knowledge
discovery, and user-friendly interfaces for efficient use.
5. Multiple Choice: In the context of informatics, what does
the term 'interoperability' refer to?
a) The ability of different information systems to operate
independently
b) The capability of various information systems to
connect and communicate effectively
c) The isolation of data within a single system
d) The use of paper records alongside digital systems
Answer: b) The capability of various information systems
to connect and communicate effectively
Rationale: Interoperability is crucial in healthcare
informatics as it ensures that different systems can
exchange and make use of information without special
effort from the user.
6. Fill-in-the-Blank: _________ is a standardized nursing
