"C" in PICOT = Correct Answers Comparison of interest:
usually a comparision to another treatment or the standard of
care
"I" in PICOT= Correct Answers intervention of interest :
includes treatment, patient perception, diagnostic tests
"O" in PICOT= Correct Answers outcome of interest: identify
outcome to enable a literature search to find evidence
"P" in PICOT = Correct Answers patient, population, or prob
of interest :need for DEEP description
"T" in PICOT= Correct Answers Time : when the comparison
of interest is completed & the outcome can be evaluated

ABSORPTION, distribution, biotransformation(metabolism)
excretion
A 20-year-old client reads the nutritional chart and follows it
accurately. The nurse also notes that the client understands the
need of a balanced diet and its relationship with a quick
recovery. Which domain correctly identifies the client's learning
style? Correct Answers cognitive domain
,A client is prescribed an opioid analgesic. The nurse is teaching
the client about the need to avoid ingesting alcohol with the drug
to prevent an interaction which would potentiate the effects of
analgesic. The nurse is describing which event? Correct
Answers Synergism
A client that is at greater risk for high affect of IV meds?
Correct Answers A: 73 year old with liver disease
R:older adults have decrease in plasma protein, the decrease can
increase the amount of meds ciruculating ->increasing the
effects!
A home health nurse states to her client, "I am very proud of

a. "A hand-off report provides an opportunity to share essential
information to ensure patient safety and continuity of care."
b. "A change-of-shift report provides the oncoming nurse with
data to help set priorities and establish reimbursement costs."
c. "A hand-off report provides an opportunity for the oncoming
nurse to ask questions and determine research priorities."
d. "A change-of-shift report provides important information to

A nurse evaluates whether a middle-age client with chronic back

A nurse examining the lungs of a client percusses over the
anterior thorax using the proper sequence. This technique helps
to identify: Correct Answers density and location of lungs:
Percussion over the lung fields helps identify the density and
location of the lungs. Palpation assesses for masses, crepitus,
muscle development, and tenderness. Lung auscultation assesses
for normal breath sounds and for abnormal (adventitious) breath
sounds.
A nurse is administering a medication to a 78 year old female
client who experienced symptoms of stroke. When
administering the medication prescribed for her, the nurse
should be aware that the client has an increased possibility of
drug toxicity due to what age-related factor? Correct Answers
Decline in liver function and production of enzymes needed for
drug metabolism.Rationale: older clients are at risk for
experiencing a cumulative effect, related to a decreased rate of
drug metabolism, higher drug plasma concentrations. This leads
to prolonged action and an increased possibility of drug toxicity
if the liver function and production of enzymes for metabolism
are decreased.
