Smart documentation forms - Answer sheets that are tailored through patient
information to emphasize data elements pertinent to the conditions and needs of the
patient.
Order sets, care plans and protocols - Answer Structured approaches that prompt
appropriate and efficient ordering, support evidence-based best practices, and provide
various management suggestions depending on the different situation of different
patients.
Parameter guideline - Answer algorithms to encourage correct entry of orders and
documentation.
Critiques and "immediate warnings" - Answer Alerts that are presented just after a user
has entered an order, a prescription or a documentation item, to show a potential
hazard or a recommendation for further information.
Relevant data summaries - Answer A single-patient view that summarizes, organizes
and filters a patient's information to highlight important management issues.
Multiple monitors- Answer A display of activity amongst all patients on a care unit helps
providers to triage activity and assure significant activities are not missed as providers
multitask amongst patients.
Predictive and retrospective analytics: -Answer Analytic methods that combine multiple
factors using statistical and artificial intelligence techniques to provide risk predictions,
stratify patients and measure progress on broad initiatives.
"Info" buttons-Answer filtered reference information and knowledge resources within
fields or "buttons" where info is provided to the end user in the context of the current
data display also referred to as metadata, or "data about data."
,Expert workup and management advisers -Answer Diagnostic and expert systems that
track and advise a patient workup and management of the patient based on
evidence-based protocols.
Event-driven notifications: These would be warnings or notifications that are triggered
within the system based on data to alert the clinical user to a new event occurring
asynchronously. Examples include an abnormal lab result.
Reminders: Events in the system, time-triggered to remind the clinical user of a task
needed to be based on a predetermined time in the system.
clinical transformation-Answer relative to workflow redesign; this is a full change of the
clinical environment and should only be used cautiously to describe redesign efforts;
transformation is defined as "a radical change approach that produces a more
responsive organization that is more capable of performing in unstable and changing
environments that organizations continue to be faced with";
- This will imply that the manner through which work is executed and the results
achieved are complete and different from the previous state, Which may not necessarily
be the case when the change at issue is technological adoption.
Technology can be leverage in implementing or in conjunction with a clinical
transformation initiative, but technology adoption itself is not considered
transformational

Optimization - Answer - when workflow analysis occurs post implementation, it is often
referred to as ________________
- it is the process of moving conditions past their current states and into more efficient
and effective methods of performing tasks.
-it is considered to be the act, process, or methodology of making something (as a
design, system or decision) as fully perfect, functional, and effective as possible.
Process Analysis - breaking down the work process into a sequence of steps that can be
analyzed and evaluated for effectiveness and efficiency; the process describes how
, work occurs, is done or how it can be done.
Workflow Analysis-Response observation and documentation of workflow to better
understand what happens in the current environment and what can be changed is
referred to as this process.
it requires careful attention to detail and the ability to moderate group discussions,
organize concepts, and generate solutions.
this is part of every functional area the INS engages in.
Process Map Answer a typical output of workflow analysis is a visual depiction of the
process called a ______ ________; this provides an excellent tool to identify specific steps
in the workflow analysis process.
- it is also a medium of communication and a basis upon which education can be built in
terms of procedures and policies
- example includes the swim-lane technique
workflow - Answer - a term used to define an act or performance of one or more
activities in a specific order.
- a sequence of steps (activities, events, interactions) which comprise:
1) a work process
2) involves two or more persons
3) creates and adds value to the organizations activities.
- also known as a process or process flow particularly when it involves implementation.
swim-lane technique - Answer because workflow crosses many different care providers,
it may be useful to construct the process map using this technique, which uses
categories such as functional work groups and roles to visually depict groups of work
and to indicate who performs the work.
Value-added activity is a process that brings the process closer to completion or
changes the product or service for the better. Example, the specimen sample putting a
label or placing a name tag on it. The name tag would be needed so the laboratory
