ACTUAL QUESTIONS WITH VERIFIED
ANSWERS.
Systematized Nomenclature of Medicine-Clinical Terms
(SNOMED-CT) - correct answer-processable collection of
medical terminology covering most areas of clinical information
such as lab results, nonlab interventions and procedures,
anatomy, diagnosis and problems, and nursing...
Telehealth - correct answer-used interchangeably with
telemedicine, although this term tends to include both medical
and nonclinical elements of cares to include education,
monitoring, and administration to facilitate the prevention or
exacerbation of medical conditions
Telemedicine - correct answer-remote delivery of healthcare
services over a telecommunications network...
Translational medicine - correct answer-taking the scientific
knowledge gained from basic advances in research to the
, bedside by developing new procedures and modes of treatment
to improve healthcare...
What are the unique challenges associated with the use of
computers related to health information? - correct answer-
Because of the large amount of data and the subjectivity it
makes it difficult to standardize.
Why is standardization important in the documentation of
clinical data? - correct answer-So that the information can be
useful across a variety of systems and provide measures of
care, which in turn can improve the quality of care.
What is the difference between biomedical informatics, clinical
informatics and nursing informatics? - correct answer-
Biomedical uses methods that manage data, information, and
knowledge. Clinical falls under biomedical but is more
applicable for patient and clinical care. Nursing uses the
information gathered to apply technology and validate methods
used in medicine. Ultimately, it all relates to data.
What is the relationship between biomedical informatics and
translational medicine? - correct answer-Biomedical informatics
