Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Clinical decision support has also resulted in decreased unnecessary hospital admissions for inap-propriately diagnosed cardiac ischemia, appropriately decreased tidal volume, and more con-sistent monitoring of plateau pressure in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome and decreased exacerbations in asthma patients.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
When coupled with other computerized tools such as clinical decision support applications, EHRs have enhanced treatment and disease management.
