PMBOK = Project Management Body of Knowledge a. The entire collection of processes, terminologies, and guidelines that are accepted as standards within the project management industry. In the SDLC System DESIGN phase, what are some project management artifacts? - CORRECT ANSWER 1. Gantt chart2. PERT - Program Evaluation and Review Technique3. CDS - Clinical Decision Support In the SDLC System DESIGN phase, what is the Gantt chart in the project management artifacts? - CORRECT ANSWER At a glance...the Gantt chart lest you see:1. What are the various activities2. When each activity begins and ends3. How long each activity is scheduled to last4. Where and by how much activities overlap5. Start and end date of the entire projectalso considered a bar chart In the SDLC System DESIGN phase, what is PERT chart in the project management artifacts? - CORRECT ANSWER Program Evaluation and Review Technique1. PERT diagrams show precedence, activities that must be completed before the next activities may be started2. It illustrates the dependencies and flow of project events and milestones3. Once a diagram is drawn, it is possible to identify the CRITICAL PATH, the longest path/duration through the activities4. Monitoring critical path will identify shortest time to complete the project. PERT Diagram - CORRECT ANSWER 1. Circles mark the beginning and ends of tasks to be done in the project (aka NODES)2. Arrows are the tasks themsevles. They are identified by letters. The actual names of tasks could be used instead of letters. The lengths of the arrows do not relate to their length in time3. Numbers after the task names are the durations of the task. The time interval may be anything from picoseconds to years. Critical path-longest # of days the shortest amount of time without missing any tasks In the SDLC System DESIGN phase, what is CDS? - CORRECT ANSWER Clinical Decision Support1.

At the right time in workflow In the SDLC System DESIGN phase, what are some CDS considerations? - CORRECT ANSWER 1. CDS can be an extremely effective tool to save time and reduce errors, but alerting algorithms must be carefully designed to avoid unintended consequences -like alert fatigue.2. Ultimately, such nuisance alerts interrupt workflow and distract from patient care, leading to the routine override of alerts by users In CDS, what are soft stops and hard stops? - CORRECT ANSWER Soft stops: moving forward is permitted as long as an active acknowledgment reason is enteredHard stops: No override accepted. Cannot place an order without first performing the reason for the hard-stop (i.e. have to record allergies before can order medication) What are some considerations for systems design disability accommodations? - CORRECT ANSWER *Patients who are disabled*Employees who are disabled*During the design phase, both developers and implementers are required (by law) to consider ADA requirements *The regulations define "physical or mental impairment" as any physiological disorder or condition and also cover any mental or psychological disorder Examples: Deaf/hearing impaired, blindness/low vision, missing limbs, epilepsy, cerebral palsy, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, PTSD In System Design-What is a database management system (DBMS)? - CORRECT ANSWER Def: Tool for information storage and retrieval It is a program or a collection of programs through which the user interacts with a databaseInteract w/a DBMS directly: User--DBMS--DatabaseInteract w/program (JAVA, C++) which interacts w/DBMS User--program--DBMS--DatabaseIMP: In either case, it is only the DBMS which accesses the database System Design: What are some types of databases? - CORRECT ANSWER 1. Legacy (older technology) A. Hierarchical: "tree" structure (folders on a computer). Just as a file on a computer sits in one folder, every record in the db has one "parent" a. One-to-One and One-to-Many B. Network: Handles many relationships b. One-to-One; One-to-Many; Many-to-Many C. Relational (popular): collections of tables c. each has a primary key (a field whose value is diff for every row of the table) cc. Tables are r/t ea other by the placement of primary from one table into the r/t as a foreign key. Systems Design-Relational databases primary vs. foreign key - CORRECT ANSWER *Patient ID is the primary key of the patient in the Patient Table**Patient ID is the foreign key of the encounter in the Encounter TableDatabase-spreadsheet organized in rows and columns Designed to add, retrieve, and manipulate data Use Query or SQL to obtain info form relational db System Design-What is database design and modeling? - CORRECT ANSWER *Logical database design-look at the logical relationships among objects. a. conceptual, abstract design b. involves arranging data into a series of logical relationships called entities and attributes c. can be displayed with an ERD (entity relationship diagram) or a logical ERD aka a logical data model System Design-what are key terms in database modeling? - CORRECT ANSWER Entity: (N) definable, real-world thing or concept w/in a system. a. in a relational db, maps to a table (Entity=table) b. real life thing, person, name Attribute: component of an entity and helps define the uniqueness of the entity. a. in a relational db, maps to a column (property, characteristic (Attribute=column)Relationship: relationship between 2 entities signifies that the 2 entities are associated w/each other somehowUnique Identifier: any identifier which is guaranteed to be unique among all identifiers used for those objects. a. Classic example is SSN System Design-DB design & modeling: What is the physical db design? - CORRECT ANSWER Physical DB design: convert the data gathered during the logical design phase into a description of the physical dbYou translate the expected SCHEMAS (collection of db objects including tables, views, indexes, and synonyms) into actual db structuresCan be displayed with an ERD (entity relationship diagram)...in this case physical ERD - a physical data modelMore defined-actual design of db objects such as tables/columns are createdBlueprint of relational DB System Design-DB design & modeling: Logical vs. physical design - CORRECT ANSWER Logical PhysicalEntity map--------- TableRelationship map--------- Foreign KeyAttribute map----------ColumnUnique Identifier map----------Primary Key***db NORMALIZATION is process used to organize a db into tables & columns. A normalized logical data model can be translated into a physical db that is organized corectly. System Desing-What is Normalization? - CORRECT ANSWER *db NORMALIZATION is a process used to organize a db into tables & columns. A normalized logical data model can be translated into a physical db that is organized correctly.

DISCRETE DATA CAN BE QUERIED & COUNTED System Design-what is discrete data graphical representation? - CORRECT ANSWER Column chart=verticalBar chart=horizontalPie chart=circleNote: the length or height of the bar is equal to the qty w/in that category of data System Design-what is continuous data? - CORRECT ANSWER Continuous data is: 1. data that is measured (body temp 98.6) 2. data that is infinitely divisible (Height (180.34cm) 3. represents measurable quantities but are not restricted to certain specified values (wt in lbs of dog) 4. only limiting factor is degree of accuracy with which it can be measured (amt of rain, inches, that falls in a randomly selected storm 5. Measured NOT COUNTED Note: can take on any number, (ie speed of a car), infinitely divisible System Design-continuous data graphical representation? - CORRECT ANSWER Histogram: For analysis, continuous data are often converted to a range that acts as a category like 16-24, 25-34, 35-44....called "bins"Histograms refer to a graphical representation; that displays data by way of bars to show the FREQUENCY of numerical data System Design-why are standard terminologies needed? - CORRECT ANSWER Standard terminology provides a foundation for interoperability by improving the effectiveness of information exchange aka common languageData must be collected-discretely and maintained in a standardized format, using uniform definitions a. in order to link data w/in an EHR system or share health information btwn systems System Design-what are standard terminologies? - CORRECT ANSWER 1. Interface Terminology: uses common terms that nurses use; thus, supports a user-friendly structured data entry interface (NANDA, NIC, NOC, LOINC, PNDS, CCC, OMAHA, ICNP, SNOMED-CT)2. Reference Terminology: acts as a common reference point that can cross-map between interface terminologies. Enable storage, retrieval, and analysis of clinical data (UMLS, ICNP, SNOMED-CT)Note: ICNP and SNOMED-CT can both interface & reference terminologies System Design-What are the ANA recognized nursing terminologies and data element sets? - CORRECT ANSWER Nursing Developed Terminologies: 1.
