Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
The goal of NMDS is to allow for data collected from other sources, such as blood glucose mon-itoring devices, ventilators, and monitors, to be downloaded into the patient record. The lan-guage referred to is the nomenclature used in the practice of nursing and not English. Option C is not necessary to memorize the NANDA diagnoses. Option D is not true.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
One advantage to the EHR is the availability of those records for research purposes and for qual-ity improvement initiatives within the institution. The other options are not true.
