Which methods can restrict a SmartText?

Restricting a SmartText in the Epic system can involve several parameters to ensure that the content is relevant and appropriate for specific patient demographics. The correct approach involves using functional type, patient sex, or age as criteria for these restrictions.

Functional type allows the SmartText to be tailored to different medical specialties or contexts in which it might be used. Incorporating patient sex ensures that the content reflects the differences in medical care that may be relevant based on biological or gender-specific needs. Age is also a crucial factor, as certain medical information or recommendations may only apply to specific age groups, such as pediatric or geriatric patients.

Using these factors ensures that healthcare providers access the most pertinent and customized content, enhancing the quality of patient care and improving clinical workflows.
