A 40-year-old patient is experiencing poorly controlled
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



hypertension. The dietitian recommends several dietary i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



modifications to the patient. The patient tries to explain the i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-

difficult for her to choos a diet that is low in sugar and low in salt
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



and carbohydrates. The nurse communicates this to the dietitian
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



using SBAR technique. Which patient information would be
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-

i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-




When using SBAR communication protocol, the nurse should first
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



identify the patient's situation. In this case, that means the nurse
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-

,should convey that the patient is suffering from chronic diabetes
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



and hypertension. The nurse then should further address the
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



breakdown of the situation and ask the dietitian to consider
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



revising the diet. Following the dietary assessment and consult,
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



the recommendations for dietary changes-- including low-salt
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



and low-sugar meals--should be made.

C. 21.2 kg/m2
i,- i,-




D. 24.6 kg/m2
i,- i,- i,-i,- i,- A. 12.5 kg/m2
i,- i,-




Patients whose BMI is less than 13 kg/m2 are considered severely
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



malnourished and require highly skilled nursing care w/ i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



hospitalization. A BMI of 18.5 to 24.9 kg/m2 indicates that the i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



patient has normal weight and does not require nursing care and
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



hospitalization


Which action would the nurse take when unable to find
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



information about the medication in any of the hospital i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



databases or electronic health records when attempting to
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



decrease the patient's adverse reactions to prescribed
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



medications?

adverse effects and drug interactions. The nurse requests the
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



information form the pharmacist when the information nis not
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



available in any of the resources available. The nurse cannot avoid
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



administering the medication if the information is unavailable.
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



Instead, the nurse obtains the information from another resource.
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



The nurse contacts the pharmacist rather than informing the
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



primary health care provider. The patient's written consent is
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



required only if the drug is still under trial or if it has potentially
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-

relationship pattern describes a patient's pattern of role
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



engagements and relationships. The cognitive=perceptual i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-



pattern describes memory, decision-making ability, language
i,- i,- i,- i,- i,- i,-
