ANS: D XF


Formulation of nursing diagnoses is usually a three-

step process. The only complete answer is “Anxiety related to new drug therapy, as evidenced by statements such as ‘I’m

s. The answer “Anxiety related to new drug therapy” is missing the “as evidenced by” portion of defining characteristics. T

he “related to” section in “Anxiety related to anxious feelings about drug therapy, as evidenced by statements such as ‘I’m
