Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Menu-based forms or menu-based computer software are commonly used in data collection in emergency departments because they allow for standardized and efficient data entry. Additionally, collecting the mode of transport to the ED is an important data point for analyzing the types and severity of injuries and illnesses seen in the department. The UACDS (Uniform Ambulatory Care Data Set) is not necessarily a standard used in all EDs for data collection.
