Chapter 01: Nursing Practice in Canada and Drug Therapy
Sea lock: Lilley’s Pharmacology for Canadian Health Care Practice, 4th Edition

MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Which is a judgement about a particular patient‘s potential need or problem?
a. A goal
b. An assessment
c. Subjective data
d. A nursing diagnosis
ANS: D
Nursing diagnosis is the phase of the nursing process during which a clinical judgement is made about how a patient responds to
heath conditions and life processes or vulnerability for that response.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Knowledge

2. The patient is to receive oral furosemide (Lasix) every day; however, because the patient is unable to swallow, he cannot take
medication orally, as ordered. The nurse needs to contact the physician. What type of problem is this?
a. A —right time‖ problem
b. A —right dose‖ problem
c. A —right route‖ problem
d. A —right medication‖ problem
ANS: C
This is a —right route‖ problem: the nurse cannot assume the route and must clarify the route with the prescriber. This is not a —right
time‖ problem because the ordered frequency has not changed. This is not a —right dose‖ problem because the dose is not related to
an inability to swallow. This is not a —right medication‖ problem because the medication ordered will not change, just the route.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Application

3. The nurse has been monitoring the patient‘s progress on his new drug regimen since the first dose and has been documenting signs
of possible adverse effects. What nursing process phase is the nurse practicing?
a. Planning
b. Evaluation
c. Implementation
d. Nursing diagnosis
ANS: B
Monitoring the patient‘s progress is part of the evaluation phase. Planning, implementation, and nursing diagnosis are not
illustrated by this example.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Application

4. The nurse is caring for a patient who has been newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Which 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 adheres to the new insulin treatment regimen.
d. The patient demonstrates safe insulin self-administration technique.
ANS: D
Having the patient demonstrate safe insulin self-administration technique is a specific and measurable outcome criterion. Following
instructions and avoiding complications are not specific criteria. Adherence to the new insulin treatment regimen is not objective
and would be difficult to measure.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Application

5. Which activity best reflects the implementation phase of the nursing process for the patient who is newly diagnosed with type 1
diabetes mellitus?
a. Providing education regarding self-injection technique
b. Setting goals and outcome criteria with the patient‘s input
c. Recording a history of over-the-counter medications used at home
d. Formulating nursing diagnoses regarding knowledge deficits related to the new
treatment regimen
ANS: A
Education is an intervention that occurs during the implementation phase. Setting goals and outcome criteria reflects the planning
phase. Recording a drug history reflects the assessment phase. Formulating nursing diagnoses regarding a knowledge deficit
reflects analysis of data as part of the planning phase.

DIF: Cognitive Level: Analysis
