MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. When caring for clients using evidence-informed practice, which of the following does the
nurse use?
a. Clinical judgment based on experience
b. Evidence from a clinical research study
c. The best available evidence to guide clinical expertise
d. Evaluation of data showing that the client outcomes are met
ANS: C
Evidence-informed nursing practice is a continuous interactive process involving the explicit,
conscientious, and judicious consideration of the best available evidence to provide care. Four
primary elements are: (a) clinical state, setting, and circumstances; (b) client preferences and
actions; (c) best research evidence; and (d) health care resources. Clinical judgment based on
the nurse’s clinical experience is part of EIP, but clinical decision making also should
incorporate current research and research-based guidelines. Evidence from one clinical
research study does not provide an adequate substantiation for interventions. Evaluation of
client outcomes is important, but interventions should be based on research from randomized
control studies with a large number of subjects.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Comprehension TOP: Nursing Process: Planning
2. Which of the following best explains the nurses’ primary use of the nursing process when
providing care to clients?
a. To explain nursing interventions to other health care professionals
b. As a problem-solving tool to identify and treat clients’ health care needs
c. As a scientific-based process of diagnosing the client’s health care problems
d. To establish nursing theory that incorporates the bio psychosocial nature of humans
ANS: B
The nursing process is an assertive problem-solving approach to the identification and
treatment of clients’ problems. Diagnosis is only one phase of the nursing process. The
primary use of the nursing process is in client care, not to establish nursing theory or explain
nursing interventions to other health care professionals.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Comprehension TOP: Nursing Process: Implementation
3. The nurse is caring for a critically ill client in the intensive care unit and plans an every 2-hour
turning schedule to prevent skin breakdown. Which type of nursing function is demonstrated

ANS: D
