Application of Course Knowledge

Posted: September 17th, 2022

1. This week we learned about the potential benefits and drawbacks to clinical decision support systems (CDSSs). Create a Pros versus Cons table with a column for Pro and a separate column for Con. Include at least 3 items for each column. Next to each item, provide a brief rationale as to why you included it on the respective list.
2. The primary goal of a CDSS is to leverage data and the scientific evidence to help guide appropriate decision making. CDSSs directly assist the clinician in making decisions about specific patients. For this discussion thread post, you are to assume your future role as an APN and create a clinical patient and scenario to illustrate an exemplary depiction of how a CDSS might influence your decision. This post is an opportunity for you to be innovative, so have fun!
