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. Anxiety related to new drug therapy
c. Anxiety related to anxious feelings about drug therapy, as evidenced by statements such
as I ‘m upset about having to test my blood sugars.
d. Anxiety related to new drug therapy, as evidenced by statements such as I‘m upset about
having to test my blood sugars.
Correct Answer: D
Formulation of nursing diagnoses is usually a three-step process. Anxiety is missing the
related to and as evidenced by portions of defining characteristics. Anxiety related to new drug
therapy is missing the 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.
