Chapter 01: The Nursing Process and Drug Therapy
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. The nurse is writing a nursing diagnosis for a plan of care for a patient who has been newly
diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Which statement reflects the correct format for a nursing
diagnosis?
a. Anxiety
b. Anxietyrelated to new drug therapy
c. Anxietyrelated to anxious feelings about drugtherapy, as evidenced bystatements
such as ―I‘m upset about having to test my blood sugars.‖
d. Anxietyrelated to new drugtherapy, as evidenced bystatements such as ―I‘m
upset about having to test my blood sugars.‖
ANS: D
Formulation of nursing diagnoses is usuallya three-step process. ―Anxiety‖ is missing the
―related to‖ and ―as evidenced by‖ portions of defining characteristics. ―Anxiety related to new drug
therapy‖ is missingthe ―as evidenced by‖ portion of defining characteristics. The statement
beginning ―Anxiety related to anxious feelings‖ is incorrect because the ―related to‖ section is
simply a restatement of the problem ―anxiety,‖ not a separate factor related to the response.

2. The patient is to receive oral guaifenesin (Mucinex) twice a day. Today, the nurse was busyand
gave the medication 2 hours after the scheduled dose was due. What type of problem does this
represent?
a. ―Right time‖
b. ―Right dose‖
c. ―Right route‖
d. ―Right medication‖
ANS: A
―Right time‖ is correct because the medication was given more than 30 minutes after the
scheduled dose was due. ―Dose‖ is incorrect because the dose is not related to the time the
medication administration is scheduled. ―Route‖ is incorrect because the route is not affected.
―Medication‖ is incorrect because the medication ordered will not change.

and documenting the patient‘s therapeutic response to the medication. Which phase of the
nursing process do these actions illustrate?
a. Nursingdiagnosis

statement best illustrates an outcome criterion for this patient?
a. The patient will follow instructions.
b. The patient will not experience complications.
c. The patient will adhere to the new insulin treatment regimen.
d. The patient will demonstrate correct blood glucose testing technique.
ANS: D
―Demonstrating correct blood glucose testing technique‖ is a specific and measurable outcome
criterion. ―Followinginstructions‖ and ―not experiencingcomplications‖ are not specific criteria.
―Adhering to new regimen‖ would be difficult to measure.

b. Setting goals and outcome criteria with the patient‘s input
c. Recordinga drug history regarding over-the-counter medications used at home
d. Formulatingnursingdiagnoses regardingdeficient knowledge related to the new
treatment regimen
