Chapter 1 Obtaining an Initial History ya ya ya ya ya




MULTIPLE CHOICE ya




1. The nurse is seeing an adolescent and the parents in the clinic for the first time. Which should
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




the nurse do first? ya ya ya ya




a. Introduce him- or herself. ya ya ya




b. Make the family comfortable. ya ya ya




c. Give assurance of privacy. ya ya ya




d. Explain the purpose of the interview. ya ya ya ya ya y a




ANS: A ya




The first thing that nurses must do is to introduce themselves to the patient and family. Parents
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




and other adults should be addressed with appropriate titles unless they specify a preferred name. Cl
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a




arification of the purpose of the interview and the nurses role is the second thing that should be done
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a




. During the initial part of the interview, the nurse should include general conversation to help make
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya ya




the family feel at ease. The interview also should take place in an environment as free of distraction a
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya ya




s possible. In addition, the nurse should clarify which information will be shared with other member
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya ya




s of the health care team and any limits to the confidentiality.
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




2.Which is considered a block to effective communication? ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




a. Using silence ya




b. Using clichs ya




c. Directing the focus ya ya




d. Defining the problem ya ya y




ANS: B
a ya




Using stereotyped comments or clichs can block effective communication. After the nurse uses
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




such trite phrases, parents often do not respond. Silence can be an effective interviewing tool. Silen
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a




ce permits the interviewee to sort out thoughts and feelings and search for responses to questions.
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya




To be effective, the nurse must be able to direct the focus of the interview while allowing maximu
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya




m freedom of expression. By using open-
ya ya ya ya ya ya




ended questions and guiding questions, the nurse can obtain the necessary information and maintai
ya ya ya y a ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




n a relationship with the family. The nurse and parent must collaborate and define the problem that
ya ya ya ya y a ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




will be the focus of the nursing intervention.

d. Childs nonverbal behaviors ya ya y a




ANS: C ya




The nurse must be aware of the childs developmental stage to engage in effective
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




communication. The use of both verbal and nonverbal communication should be appropriate to the ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya




developmental level. Nonverbal behaviors vary in importance based on the childs developmental le ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya




vel and physical condition. Although the childs physical condition is a consideration, development
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya




al level is much more important. The presence of parents is important when communicating with yo
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya ya ya




ung children but may be detrimental when speaking with adolescents.
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a




4. Because children younger than 5 years are egocentric, the nurse should do which when
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




communicating with them? ya ya ya




a. Focus communication on the child. ya ya ya ya




b. Use easy analogies when possible. ya ya ya ya




c. Explain experiences of others to the child. ya ya ya ya ya ya




d. Assure the child that communication is private. ya ya ya ya ya ya y a




ANS: A ya




Because children of this age are able to see things only in terms of themselves, the best approach
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




is to focus communication directly on them. Children should be provided with information about w
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a




hat they can do and how they will feel. With children who are egocentric, analogies, experiences, an
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya




d assurances that communication is private will not be effective because the child is not capable of u
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya ya ya ya




nderstanding.
5. The nurses approach when introducing hospital equipment to a preschooler who seems afraid
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




should be based on which principle? ya ya ya ya ya ya




a. The child may think the equipment is alive. ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




b. Explaining the equipment will only increase the childs fear. ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




c. One brief explanation will be enough to reduce the childs fear.
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




d. The child is too young to understand what the equipment does. ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a




ANS: A ya




Young children attribute human characteristics to inanimate objects. They often fear that the
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




objects may jump, bite, cut, or pinch all by themselves without human direction. Equipment should
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya




be kept out of sight until needed. Simple, concrete explanations about what the equipment does and
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya ya




how it will feel will help alleviate the childs fear. Preschoolers need repeated explanations as reassu
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya y a ya ya




rance.
6.When the nurse interviews an adolescent, which is especially important?
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




a. Focus the discussion on the peer group. ya ya ya ya ya ya




b. Allow an opportunity to express feelings. ya ya ya ya ya




c. Use the same type of language as the adolescent.
ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




d. Emphasize that confidentiality will always be maintained. ya ya ya ya ya ya y a




ANS: B ya




Adolescents, like all children, need opportunities to express their feelings. Often they interjectya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya ya




feelings into their words. The nurse must be alert to the words and feelings expressed. The nurse
