MULTIPLE CHOICE vb




1. When caring for clients using evidence-informed practice, which of the following does
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


the nurse use?
vb vb vb


a. Clinical judgement based on experience vb vb vb vb


b. Evidence from a clinical research study vb vb vb vb vb


c. The best available evidence to guide clinical expertise
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


d. Evaluation of data showing that the client outcomes are met vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb




CORRECT ANSWER: vb


C v b


Evidence-informed nursing practice is a continuous interactive process involving the explicit,
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


conscientious, and judicious consideration of the best available evidence to provide care.
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


Four primary elements are: (a) clinical state, setting, and circumstances; (b) client
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


preferences and actions; (c) best research evidence; and (d) health care resources. Clinical
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


judgement based on the nurse’s clinical experience is part of EIP, but clinical decision
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


making also should incorporate current research and research-based guidelines. Evidence
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


from one clinical research study does not provide an adequate substantiation for
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


interventions. Evaluation of client outcomes is important, but interventions should be
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


based on research from randomized control studies with a large number of subjects.
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb

2. Which of the following best e x p l a in s t h e n u r s e s ’ pr imary use of the nursing process when
vb vb vb vb vb
N R I G B. C M vb vb vb vb vb vb vb



providing care to vb vb USN T O vb vb vb


clients?
vb


a. To explain nursing interventions to other health care professionals
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


b. As a problem-solving tool to identify and treat clients’ health care needs
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


c. As a scientific-based process of diagnosing the client’s health care problems
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


d. To establish nursing theory that incorporates the biopsychosocial nature of humans
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb




CORRECT ANSWER: vb v b B
The nursing process is an assertive problem-solving approach to the identification and
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


treatment of clients’ problems. Diagnosis is only one phase of the nursing process. The
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


primary use of the nursing process is in client care, not to establish nursing theory or
vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb vb


explain nursing interventions to other health care professionals.

demonstrated with this turning schedule?

a. Dependent
