Question 1 of 5
What term is used to identify requirements associated with the implementation of electronic health records (EHRS) that are designed to improve the delivery of health care?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Meaningful use refers to a set of criteria established to ensure that EHRs are used effectively to improve healthcare delivery, enhance patient safety, and facilitate data sharing. Performance reporting involves tracking outcomes but is not a requirement for EHR implementation. Support activities are secondary tasks, not core requirements. Core functions describe essential features of an EHR but do not encompass the broader goals of meaningful use.

Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Discarding the toothbrush prevents re-infection and transmission of streptococcal bacteria.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is assisting with teaching a newly licensed nurse about the use of electronic health records (EHRs). Which of the following is an outcome associated with the use of EHRS that the nurse should include?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: EHRs streamline documentation, reduce duplication of tasks, and provide quick access to patient information, ultimately saving time. They are designed to enhance quality of care and reduce redundancy, and while initial costs may be high, they can lead to long-term savings.

Question 5 of 5
A 2-year-old is being treated for a pneumonia. The health care provider orders 15mg/kg of amoxicillin/clavulanic acid to be administered every 12 hours. The child weighs 25 pounds. The elixir comes in a strength of 250 mg/5 mL. How many mL of amoxicillin/clavulanic acid should the nurse administer to this child per dose? mL (Round to the nearest tenth)
Correct Answer: 3.4 mL/dose
Rationale: Calculation: 25 lbs = 11.34 kg, 15 mg/kg * 11.34 kg = 170.1 mg/dose, 170.1 mg / (250 mg/5 mL) = 3.4 mL/dose.
