ehr to talk to her. Where would you go to find that information in Gwen's chart? What does her chart state? I would go to the orders and scroll to look for consults.

A healthcare facility wishes to find out if a new, more expensive diabetes medication (Medication B) is lowering the weight and Hgb A1C lab values for patients more than the traditional medication (Medication A).

what is the answer to number 8?

Answer 1

8, Structured data:
  Eligible patients were identified from the databases with Index date..Mean HbA1c at baseline and 6 months was used to calculate crude 6 months changed in HbA1c,for each second-line therapy the 6-month change in HbA1c was determined using analysis using variance-weighted least -squares estimation..It should be mentioned the relationship between baseline HbA1C and subsequent 6 months change in HbA1C was explored to determine the best way to adjust for HbA1c in the structured data..
Baseline HbA1C and 6-moths HbA1c change, second-line glucose-lowering therapies should be mentioned including time since T2DM diagnosis and age,and merit consideration when making treatment decisions..
The reasons for changing treatment or initiating a particular second-line therapy are not routinely captured in EMRs..EMRs studies need on recording of patient data by physicians,which possible the treatment omitted reason,however the low frequency was expected..
