diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Which statement reflects the correct format for a nursing
gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr




diagnosis?
gr




a. Anxiety
b. Anxietyrelated to new drug therapy gr gr gr gr gr




c. Anxietyrelated to anxious feelings about drug therapy, as evidenced by statements
gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr




such as ―I‘m upset about having to test myblood sugars.‖
gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr




d. Anxietyrelated to new drug therapy, as evidenced by statements such as ―I‘m
gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr




upset about having to test my blood sugars.‖
gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr




ANS: D g r




Formulation of nursing diagnoses is usually a three-step process. ―Anxiety‖ is missing the
gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr




―related to‖ and ―as evidenced by‖ portions of defining characteristics. ―Anxiety related to new
gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr




drug therapy‖ is missing the ―as evidenced by‖ portion of defining characteristics. The statement
gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr




beginning ―Anxiety related to anxious feelings‖ is incorrect because the ―related to‖ section is
gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr gr




simply a restatement of the problem ―anxiety,‖ not a separate factor related to the response.

represent?
gr




a. ―Right time‖ gr

d. ―Right medication‖ gr




ANS: A g r




―Right time‖ is correct because the medication was given more than 30 minutes after the
