The Nurse Is Writing A Nursing Diagnosis For A Plan Of Care For A Patient Who Has Been
Newly Diagnosed With Type 2 Diabetes. Which Statement Reflects The Correct Format For
A Nursing Diagnosis?
A. Anxiety
B. Anxiety Related To New Drug Therapy
C. Anxiety Related To Anxious Feelings About Drug Therapy, As Evidenced By Statements
Such As “I’m Upset About Having To Test My Blood Sugars.”
* D. Anxiety Related To New Drug Therapy, As Evidenced By Statements Such As “I’m
Upset About Having To Test My Blood Sugars.”
Correct Answer: D
Explanation/Rationale:
Ans: D
Formulation Of Nursing Diagnoses Is Usually A Three-Step Process. “Anxiety” Is Missing The
“Related To” And “As Evidenced By” Portions Of Defining Characteristics. “Anxiety Related
To New Drug Therapy” Is Missing The “As Evidenced By” Portion Of Defining Characteristics.
The Statement Beginning “Anxiety Related To Anxious Feelings” Is Incorrect Because The
“Related To” Section Is Simply A Restatement Of The Problem “Anxiety,” Not A Separate
Factor Related To The Response.
