Part A:

1. A nurse is using an electronic health record (EHR)

system to document the care of a patient with diabetes.

The nurse notices that the system has a feature that allows

her to enter clinical decision support (CDS) rules based on

the patient's condition and preferences. What is the main

benefit of using CDS rules in EHR systems?

a) They reduce the need for human judgment and expertise

in clinical situations.

b) They provide standardized and evidence-based

recommendations for optimal care.

c) They enhance the communication and collaboration

among health care providers.

d) They increase the efficiency and accuracy of data entry

and retrieval.

* b) They provide standardized and evidence-based

recommendations for optimal care.

Rationale: CDS rules are tools that help clinicians make

better decisions by providing relevant and timely

information, such as guidelines, alerts, reminders, order

sets, etc. CDS rules can improve the quality, safety, and

effectiveness of care by reducing errors, variations, and

unnecessary interventions.

2. A nurse is working in a telehealth center that provides

remote monitoring and consultation services to patients
