MULTIPLE CHOICE pn




1. The nurse is caring for a patient with a new diagnosis of pneumonia and explains to the patie
pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn



nt that together they will plan the patient’s care and set goals for discharge. The patient asks,
pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn



“How is that different from what the doctor does?” Which response by the nurse is most appro
pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn



priate?
a. “The role of the nurse is to administer medications and other treatments prescribed
pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn



by your doctor.” pn pn



b. “The nurse’s job is to help the doctor by collecting data and communicating when
pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn



there are problems.” pn pn



c. “Nurses perform many of the procedures done by physicians, but nurses are here in
pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn



the hospital for a longer time than doctors.”
pn pn pn pn pn pn pn



d. “In addition to caring for you while you are sick, the nurses will assist you to
pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn



develop an individualized plan to maintain your health.” pn pn pn pn pn pn pn

This response is consistent with the Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) definition of nursin

g. Registered nurses are self-

regulated health care professionals who work autonomously and in collaboration with others.

RNs enable individuals, families, groups, communities and populations to achieve their optim

heir self- pn



care decisions and actions in situations of health, illness, injury, and disability in all stages of

life. The other responses describe some of the dependent and collaborative functions of the n
pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn



ursing role but do not accurately describe the nurse’s role in the health care system.

2. When caring for patients using evidence-
pn pn pn pn pn



informed practice, which of the following does the nurse use?
pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn



a. Clinical judgement based on experience pn pn pn pn



b. Evidence from a clinical research study pn pn pn pn pn



c. The best available evidence to guide clinical expertise

d. Evaluation of data showing that the patient outcomes are met pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn




ANS: C p n



Evidence-
informed nursing practice is a continuous interactive process involving the explicit, conscienti

ous, and judicious consideration of the best available evidence to provide care. Four primary el

ements are: (a) clinical state, setting, and circumstances; (b) patient preferences and actions; (c
pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn pn



) best research evidence, and (d) health care resources. Clinical judgement based on the nurse’

s clinical experience is part of EIP, but clinical decision making also should incorporate curre

nt research and research-

based guidelines. Evidence from one clinical research study does not provide an adequate sub
