2025
1. What is the primary role of informatics in advanced nursing
practice?
- A) Reducing healthcare costs
- B) Enhancing patient record confidentiality
- C) Improving patient care outcomes
- D) Developing new medical devices
Correct ANS: C) Improving patient care outcomes
©2024/2025
, Rationale: Informatics in nursing primarily aims to improve
patient care outcomes through better data management and
accessibility.
2. Which of the following best describes the interoperability of
health information systems?
- A) Systems that operate on the same operating system
- B) The ability of different information technology systems to
exchange and utilize data
- C) Systems that have centralized database management
- D) Platforms that use the same programming language
Correct ANS: B) The ability of different information
technology systems to exchange and utilize data
Rationale: Interoperability refers to the ability of diverse
systems and organizations to work together, sharing and using
information effectively.
3. In the context of nursing informatics, "CDSS" stands for:

information between medical applications?
- A) IHE
- B) HL7
- C) DICOM
- D) SNOMED
Correct ANS: B) HL7
Rationale: HL7 (Health Level Seven) is an international set of
standards for the exchange, integration, sharing, and retrieval of
electronic health information.
5. In nursing informatics, "big data" refers to:
- A) The process of data mining to find trends
- B) Large sets of complex data analyzed to reveal patterns
- C) The storage of patient records in large databases
- D) Visualization of data for better interpretation
