C798 NURS 6702 Informatics System Analysis &
Design (NI)
Objective Assessment Review (Qns & Ans)
2025
1. **What is the primary goal of system analysis in healthcare
informatics?*
a. Reducing costs exclusively
b. Understanding and documenting user requirements (*Correct
ANS*)
c. Implementing design without planning
d. Minimizing the role of end-users
**Rationale:* System analysis identifies the needs and
requirements of users to inform the development process.

,2. **Which tool is most commonly used for modeling data flows
in system analysis?*
a. Data Flow Diagram (DFD) (*Correct ANS*)
b. Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD)
c. Use Case Diagram
d. Gantt Chart
**Rationale:* DFDs represent how data moves through a
system, making them ideal for system analysis.
3. **What is the primary focus of system design in informatics?*
a. Implementing the finalized product
b. Defining architecture and user interfaces (*Correct ANS*)
c. Minimizing user input
d. Reducing the complexity of requirements
**Rationale:* System design specifies the structure, interfaces,
and functionality of the proposed system.
4. **Which phase follows the requirements gathering stage in
system analysis?*
a. System implementation
b. System design (*Correct ANS*)
c. Maintenance and support

, d. Testing and validation
**Rationale:* After requirements gathering, the system design
phase outlines how the system will address those needs.

**Fill-in-the-Blank Questions**
5. **The process of __________ involves evaluating whether
system requirements align with organizational goals.*
*ANS: Feasibility analysis
**Rationale:* Feasibility analysis ensures that proposed
systems are viable and meet organizational objectives.
6. **A __________ diagram is used in system design to illustrate
the relationship between entities in a database.*
*ANS: Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD)
**Rationale:* ERDs graphically represent entities and their
interconnections, essential for database design.
7. **The __________ phase focuses on determining whether the
designed system meets user needs and requirements.*
