NURS 590-NURSING INFORMATICS EXAM
QUESTIONS AND CORRECT ANSWERS GRADED
A+ 2025
The American Association for Justice (2013), suggests that to improve care
delivery and to minimize error, the most important tools to employ are:
computer systems that track activities at the point-of-care automation
What is a non-value-added activity?
Steps in a process that are necessary for regulatory or compliance reasons but do
not bring the process closer to completion or do not change the product or service
for the better
Variation occurs when workers
a. perform the same function in different ways
Which of the following can be described as discrete entities described objectively?
Data
John, a 78-year-old male patient in a hospital, is referred to a pulmonary specialist
for a consult on his breathing problems. The specialist orders a CT scan of the
, lungs and is alerted by the electronic health record that a CT scan was performed 1
week ago. This alert is designed to prevent duplicate testing and is part of which
essential electronic health record component?
Decision support system
Hands-on interactive approaches to health education are more likely to appeal to
active seniors
A nurse is preparing data for the data mining process and is identifying important
variables. What phase of data mining is this?
Problem identification
A nurse researcher analyzes databases to determine patterns of disease. Discovery
of this knowledge will assist with which of the following?
Prevention of sequelae of the disease
A nurse researcher understands that data mining is most successful to reduce
inefficiencies, improve quality, and support transformations when paired with
which of the following?
Interprofessional collaboration
