Question 15
Type: FIB
_____________and wireless technology can be used with CISs to allow information entry and retrieval at the
point of care or wherever it is needed by the health care professional.
Standard Text:
Correct Answer: Mobile
Rationale : Mobile technology can be used with CISs allow information entry and retrieval at the point of care or
wherever it is needed by the healthcare professional. This is best seen by the healthcare professional who can view
client lab results while walking or at the point of care which enhances worker productivity because it eliminates
the need to walk back to a central location to view test results, and it improves client service because treatments
can be ordered and initiated in a more timely fashion.

Rationale : The nurse, or other care provider, can select one or more appropriate critical pathways for the client.
If more than one path is selected, the system should merge the paths to create one “master” path or protocol. The
system should identify variances to the anticipated outcomes as they are charted and provide aggregate variance
data for analysis by the providers. This information can be used to fine tune and improve the critical pathways,
thereby contributing to improved client outcomes.
