QUESTIONS WITH ANSWERS UPDATED
2025 - 2026
Mitosis Run ANS -An .xml spreadsheet finalized and run in MST after testing in ACE. These patients will
age, and this option is primarily used by non-clinical apps.
Mitosis Load ANS -Finalized .xml spreadsheets are given to the Mitosis Guru after testing who will add it
to the active Mitosis sheet. The Guru will load this into MST, but it will only run the the PREP
environment with each refresh to make the patients look fresh for class every day.
Mitosis Guru ANS -PT who creates the one "official" Mitosis spreadsheet to be loaded in MST.
Anchor date ANS -The date the model patient looks perfect for class. This date equates to "today" for
each duplicated patient.
Copy-Paste Duplications ANS -Used to create training patients that are not date-sensitive. (They age
over time.) Done in MST
Mitosis Duplication Menu ANS -Patient Tools menu in Epic Training Tools utility that allows you to run
and load mitosis xml files.
Date-Sensitive Patients ANS -Patients who have active orders, scheduled appointments, age or time
specific scenario details like a pregnancy. Information in the patient chart will look unrealistic if the
patient is allowed to age over time.
Why would you use Mitosis (run) and not copy and paste duplication? ANS -Patients are not date-
sensitive, they can age over time; but they require some features in the mitosis spreadsheet like user
and provider swaps.
, Who runs a Mitosis (run) spreadsheet into MST: Application PT or Guru? ANS -Run spreadsheets are run
in MST by the application trainer.
What are the 4 steps you need to create an exact copy of your model patient with the Copy and Paste
Duplication tool? ANS -1. Copy and patient duplication names from your application cookbook.
2. Open the Training Tools > Manual Duplication application.
3. Enter the correct model patient that exists in Hyperspace.
4. Paste the names from the cookbook at the prompt.
What is a consequence of duplicating patients in MST? ANS -Patients will age and date-sensitive
information such as appointments and upcoming procedures will not be realistic.
Give an example when a Mitosis Guru will need to re-load a Mitosis sheet? ANS -You need to edit a
model patient that uses date sliding, the guru will have to reload it to force it to copy your new patient
instead of the old patient. This is true even if the tab in the Mitosis spreadsheet stays the same.
True or False: Every application uses Mitosis to duplicate patients ANS -False
In which environments are duplicate training patients typically created? ANS -MST For non-date
sensitive patients and PREP for date sensitive patients.
Manual Patient Duplicator ANS -Use to make a duplicate (or duplicates) of an existing patient. ◎
Duplicates receive a copy of the patient's history that they were copied from. ◎ A duplicate patient's
history can be adjusted by sliding them
Historical Build User ANS -If you're building or editing model patients manually in MST, you will log in as
users called historical build users.
Historical build users are copies of model users. (Example: Diana McQueenie)
Patient Build Instructions ANS -Steps to build a patient in the patient-specific spreadsheets in your
training wheels.
