chapter 01: the patient interview
des jardins: clinical manifestations and assessment of respiratory disease, 8th edition
multiple choice
1. the respiratory care practitioner is conducting a patient interview. the main purpose of this interview is to:
a. review data with the patient.
b. gather subjective data from the patient.
c. gather objective data from the patient.
d. fill out the history form or checklist.
ans: b
the interview is a meeting between the respiratory care practitioner and the patient. it allows the collection of
subjective data about the patient’s feelings regarding his/her
condition. the history should be done before the interview. although data can be reviewed, that is not the primary
purpose of the interview.
2. for there to be a successful interview, the respiratory therapist must:
a. provide leading questions to guide the patient.
b. reassure the patient.
c. be an active listener.
d. use medical terminology to show knowledge of the subject matter.
ans: cn r i g b.c m
the personal qualities that a respiratory therapist must have to conduct a successful interview include
being an active listener, having a genuine concern for the patient, and having empathy. leading questions must be
avoided. reassurance may provide a false sense of comfort to the patient. medical jargon can sound exclusionary
and paternalistic to a patient.
3. which of the following would be found on a history form?
