After upgrading to a new EHR system, the software used can determine dosages for prescription medications without the need for manual calculation. What kind of errors should be expected with such a platform and is it advantageous?
Users would make fewer errors since the software is intended to support ease of use.
None, this platform would make visits faster.
None, however, this platform would increase visit times.
Users could become reliant on the new platform due to its ease and may become prone to errors despite the improved speed of visits.
The Correct Answer is D
A. Users would make fewer errors since the software is intended to support ease of use. – This may be true to some extent; however, reliance on software can also lead to other types of errors.
B. None, this platform would make visits faster. – This is misleading; while it may make visits faster, there can still be errors related to over-reliance on the system.
C. None, however, this platform would increase visit times. – This statement contradicts the nature of the EHR system designed to improve efficiency; hence, it is not a correct assertion.
D. Users could become reliant on the new platform due to its ease and may become prone to errors despite the improved speed of visits. – This acknowledges that while the system may reduce calculation errors, users may neglect critical thinking skills, leading to potential errors in other areas of patient care.

Correct Answer is A
Explanation
A. By evaluating technology and filling data gaps. – Nurses can contribute by identifying gaps in data that machine learning models need to improve accuracy, and by assessing technology to ensure it meets clinical needs and complements patient care.
B. By simply accessing and using information. – Access alone does not contribute significantly to machine learning; active data input and gap identification are more effective.
C. By studying statistics to understand the algorithms. – Studying algorithms helps understand machine learning but does not directly contribute to its function or data generation.
D. By gathering patient data. – While gathering data is helpful, without evaluating technology and addressing data gaps, it doesn’t fully contribute to machine learning model improvement.
Correct Answer is D
Explanation
A. Human-resources information systems. – This system focuses on employee management and does not specifically evaluate data validity or performance across other systems.
B. Clinical decision support system. – This system aids in clinical decision-making by providing evidence-based recommendations but does not evaluate the overall performance of data and systems.
C. Registration and scheduling system. – This system is primarily for managing patient appointments and does not assess the validity or performance of other systems.
D. Quality assurance system. – This system is dedicated to evaluating and ensuring the quality and performance of healthcare services and data, making it the appropriate choice.
