Answer to Question 1

The four areas include data application (purpose for which the data are collected), data collection (processes by which data elements are accumulated), data warehousing (processes and systems used to archive data and data journals), and data analysis (process of translating data into information utilized for an application).

Answer to Question 2

An MPI links a patient's medical record number with common identification data elements (for example, patient's complete name, date of birth, gender, mother's maiden name, and Social Security number). The MPI is the key to locating paper-based records in the HIM department file system. The MPI should be maintained permanently.

Though Candida and Aspergillus species are the most common fungal pathogens causing invasive fungal disease in the immunocompromised, infections due to previously uncommon hyaline and dematiaceous filamentous fungi are occurring more often today.
