• What is the primary purpose of the nursing assessment?
• Identifying underlying pathologic conditions
• Assisting the physician in identifying medical conditions
• Determining the patients mental status
• Exploring patient responses to health problems
ANS: D
A nursing assessment is done to identify the patients response to health problems. During the nursing
assessment phase, a comprehensive information base is developed through a physical examination,
nursing history, medication history, and professional observation. Identifying underlying pathologic
conditions and assisting the physician in identifying medical conditions is not part of the nursing process.
Determining the patients mental status is one part of the nursing assessment, but it is not the primary
purpose.

• What is the basis of the NANDA I taxonomy?
• Functional health patterns

• Basic human needs
• Pathophysiologic needs

ANS: B
The NANDA I taxonomy identifies human response patterns. Functional components of health patterns
are limited to activity, fluid volume, nutrition, self care, and sensory perception. Basic human needs
comprise less than merely health patterns. Pathophysiologic needs are not part of the scope of NANDA
I.

• Which task is included in the assessment step of the nursing process?
• Establishing patient goals/outcomes
• Implementing the nursing care plan (NCP)
• Measuring goal/outcome achievement
• Collecting and communicating data
ANS: D
Data are collected and communicated in the assessment phase of the nursing process. Establishing goals
is the function of planning.
Implementing the NCP is the function of implementation. Measuring outcome achievement is the
function of evaluation.

• Nursing diagnoses remain the same for as long as the disease is present.
• Nursing diagnoses are written to identify disease states.
• Nursing diagnoses describe patient problems that nurses treat.
• Nursing diagnoses identify causes related to illness.
ANS: C
Diagnostic statements identify problems a nurse is independently able to treat within the scope of
professional practice. Nursing diagnoses vary with the changing condition of the patient. The response
patterns are unique to the patient and are not disease specific. Nursing diagnoses describe the patients
human response pattern.

Nursing classification systems such as NIC and NOC are designed to provide a standardized language for
reporting and analyzing nursing care delivery that is individualized for each patient. Standardized
