Answer to Question 1

Variances
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.
Global Rationale:

Cognitive Level: Applying
Client Need: Safe Effective Care Environment
Client Need Sub: Management of Care
Nursing/Integrated Concepts: Communication and Documentation

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: An important aspect of a registration system used in a multi-entity health system network is the development of a unique client identifier. This number or identification code is used to identify the client in all information systems across the organization and across all entities. This enables accurate client identification, supporting the development of a longitudinal client record that contains all clinical information available for the client.
