A group of nurses are participating in being the first group of staff to use a new electronic pain assessment tool. The group is discussing whether or not the system is easy to use. During the discussion, the group mentions that "the shortcuts provided are really helpful and save valuable time." The informatics nurse specialist interprets this statement as reflecting which concept?

Generally, a process is said to be efficient when it is able to circumvent wastage of energy, money, materials, efforts and time in carrying out a task or getting a desired outcome from a process. Efficiency means doing something successfully as required without waste,

In physics and other scientific study, efficiency refers to a measure of the degree of using input well to achieve a desired output.

Efficiency interaction is therefore the ability to employ an instrument or technique for the purpose of achieving a certain outcome with minimum or no waste of time or resources as well as avoiding unnecessary effort.

Therefore, the informatics nurse specialist interprets the statement as reflecting the concept of efficient interactions.

I wish you the best.
