Question

The informatics nurse is reviewing the variance information from the open cholecystectomy pathway initiated at the local hospital last year. The nurse notes that in 90% of the cases the client did not receive orders to ambulate until day three postoperatively, and discharge was delayed by one day in all these cases. Based on this information which statements can be considered? Select all that apply.? Change the default in the order entry system to enter the ambulation orders a day earlier. Change the pathway to reflect a later discharge date. Tell the staff not to delay receiving the ambulation orders.? Review the variances to see if there are common reasons for the delay.? Collect the reasons for delay and compare to other hospital systems of similar size.?
