SBAR - ANS- S: Situation
B: Background
A: Assessment
R: Recommendation
First-Level Priority - ANS- emergent, life-threatening, and immediate, such as
establishing an airway or supporting breathing
Second-Level Priority - ANS- Next in urgency, requiring attention so as to avoid further
deterioration
Example: acute pain, infection risk, elimination problems.
Third-Level Priority - ANS- Important to patient's health but can be addressed after more

4 Types of Data - ANS- Emergency, Follow-up, Focussed/Problem-Centered,

chronic health problems
Example: heart failure (reevaluate medications, discuss coping strategies).
Focused or Problem-Centered Database - ANS- For limited or short term problem.
Collect "mini" database, smaller in scope, concerns mainly one problem, one cue
complex, or one body system
Example: 2 days after surgery person suddenly has shortness of breath.
,Complete (total health) Database - ANS- Complete health history and physical
examination. It describes current and past health state and forms a baseline against
which all future changes can be measured. Yields first diagnoses.

, Naturalistic or Holistic Perspective - ANS- Belief that human life is only one aspect of
nature and a part of the general order of the cosmos.
Yin/Yang Theory - ANS- Health exists when all aspects of the person are in perfect

Hot/ Cold theory - ANS- The four humors of the body--blood, phlegm, black bile and
yellow bile--regulate basic bodily functions and are described in terms of temperature,
dryness, and moisture.
Western Medicine - ANS- the most common form of medical care in the United States,

Examples include voodoo, witchcraft, and faith healing

Socialization - ANS- the process by which individuals internalize the values, beliefs, and
norms of a given society and learn to function as members of that society

Objective data - ANS- information that is seen, heard, felt, or smelled by an observer;
signs
Subjective data - ANS- things a person tells you about that you cannot observe through
your senses; symptoms
Successful Interview - ANS- gathers complete and accurate information, establishes
rapport and trust , teaches the client about current health state ,builds rapport for future
health care needs and begins health promotion strategies.
Room Setting - ANS- Respectful distance (4-5ft), maintain eye level, patient is
comfortable, avoid standing
