3. A nurse is conducting an orientation program for a group of newly hired nurses.
As part of the program, the nurse is reviewing the is s ue a ob i rfb .icno fmo/ t re m s t ed consent. The
nurse determines that the teaching was effective when the group identifies which
situation as a violation of informed consent?
A. Performing a procedure on a 15-year-old without parental consent
B. Serving as a witness to the signature process on an oapb i er br. cao tmi v/ t ees t permit
C. Asking whether the client understands what she is signing following receiving
education
D. Getting verbal consent over the phone for an emergeanb icr by. c opmr/ot ecs te d ure from the
spouse of a unconscious woman

Answer: A

Rationale: In most states, only clients over the age of 18 can legally provide
consent for health care. Serving as a witness to the signature process, asking
whether the client understands what she is signing, a n d a gb i reb t. ctoimn /gt e s vt erbal consent over
the phone for emergency procedures are all key to informed consent and are not
violations.

4. A pregnant woman is to undergo an invasive procedure to evaluate the status of
her fetus. To ensure informed consent, which action wouabldirb.bcoem/ttehset priority
responsibility of the nurse providing care to this woman?
A. Asking relevant questions to determine the client's understanding
B. Providing a detailed description of the risks and benefits of the procedure
C. Explaining the exact steps that will occur during the parb oi r bc. ceodmu/ t erset
D. Offering suggestions for alternative options for treatment

Answer: A

Rationale: The nurse's responsibilities related to informed consent include: Ensuring
the consent form is completed with signatures from the client; serving as a witness
to the signature process; and determining whether the ca lbi i er b n. c to mu/ t ne sdt erstands what she
is signing by asking her pertinent questions. The physician, advanced practice
nurse, or midwife is responsible for informing the client about the procedure and
obtaining consent by providing a detailed description of the procedure or treatment,
its potential risks and benefits, and alternative m e t h o d s a ab i vr b a. c iol ma /bt elset .

5. A 9-month-old with glaucoma requires surgery. The i na bfi ar b n. c to 'ms/ t eps at
rents are divorced. To obtain informed consent, which action would be
most appropriate?
A. Contacting the father for informed consent
B. Obtaining informed consent from the mother
C. Seeking a court ruling on the course of care
D. Determining sole or joint custody by the parents

Answer: D

Rationale: The most appropriate action would be to determine legal custody by
court decree. If the parents have joint custody, then either parent may give
consent, but it is always best to have consent given by ba boi rtbh. c o pm a/ t erset nts. The parent
with only physical custody may give consent for emergency care. The last resort is
getting a court ruling; usually this is not necessary unless the parents disagree
about the care of the child.

that her education on family-centered care was fully understood?
A. "Childbirth affects the entire family, and relationships will change."
B. "Families are usually not capable of making health c a ar bei r bd. c eo mc /i t se is ot ns for themselves,
especially in stressful situations."
C. "Mothers are the only family member affected by childbirth."
D. "Since childbirth is a medical procedure, it may affect everyone."

Answer: A

Rationale: Childbirth affects the entire family, and r e la t i oa bni r bs. hc oi mp/st e swt ill change.
Childbirth is viewed as a normal life event, not a medical procedure. Families are
very capable of making health care decisions about their own care with proper
information and support.
