MULTIPLECHOICE mn




1. The nurse completes an admission database and explains that the plan of care and discharge goals
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




will be developed with the patient‘s input. The patient states, ―How is this different from what the
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




doctor does?‖ Which response would be most appropriate for the nurse to make?
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




a. ―The role of the nurse is to administer medications and other treatments prescribed by
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




your doctor.‖
mn mn




b. ―The nurse‘s job is to help the doctor bycollecting information and
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




communicating any problems that occur.‖
mn mn mn mn mn




c. ―Nurses perform many of the same procedures as the doctor, but nurses are with the mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




patients for a longer time than the doctor.‖
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




d. ―In addition to caring for you while you aresick, the nurses will assist you to
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




develop an individualized plan to maintain your health.‖
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




ANS: D m n




This response is consistent with the American Nurses Association (ANA) definition of nursing,
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




which describes the role of nurses in promoting health. The other responses describe some of the
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




dependent and collaborative functions of the nursing role but do not accurately describe the
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




nurse‘s role in the health care system.

2. The nurse describes to a student nurse how to use evidence-based practice guidelines when
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




mn caring for patients. Which statement, if made by the nurse, would be the most accurate?
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




a. ―Inferences from clinical research studies are used as a guide.‖ mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




b. ―Patient care is based on clinical judgment, experience, and traditions.‖ mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




c. ―Data are evaluated to show that the patient outcomes are consistently met.‖
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




d. ―Recommendations arebased on research, clinical expertise, and patient mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




preferences.‖
mn




ANS: D m n




Evidence-based practice (EBP) is the use of the best research-based evidence combined with mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




clinician expertise. Clinical judgment based on the nurse‘s clinical experience is part of EBP, but
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




clinical decision making should also incorporate current research and research-based guidelines.
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




Evaluation of patient outcomes is important, but interventions should be based on research from
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




randomized control studies with a large number of subjects.

3. The nurse teaches a student nurse about how to applythe nursing process when providing
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




patient care. Which statement, if made by the student nurse, indicates that teaching was
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




successful?
mn




a. ―The nursing process is a scientific-based method of diagnosing the patient‘s
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




health care problems.‖
mn mn mn




b. ―The nursing process is a problem-solving tool used to identify and treat patients‘
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn

, health care needs.‖ mn mn




c. ―The nursing process is used primarily to explain nursing interventions to other
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




health care professionals.‖
mn mn mn




d. ―The nursing process is based on nursing theorythat incorporates the
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




biopsychosocial nature of humans.‖
mn mn mn mn




ANS: B m n




The nursing process is a problem-solving approach to the identification and treatment of patients‘
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




problems. Diagnosis is onlyone phase of the nursing process. The primary use of the nursing
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




process is in patient care, not to establish nursing theory or explain nursing interventions to other
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




health care professionals.

4. A patient has been admitted to the hospital for surgery and tells the nurse, ―I do not feel
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




comfortable leaving my children with myparents.‖ Which action should the nurse take next?
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




a. Reassurethe patient that these feelings are common for parents. mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




b. Have the patient call the children to ensure that they are doing well.
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




c. Gather more data about the patient‘s feelings about the child-care arrangements.
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




d. Call the patient‘s parents to determine whether adequate child care is being
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




provided.
mn




ANS: C m n




Because a complete assessment is necessary in order to identify a problem and choose an
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




appropriate intervention, the nurse‘s first action should be to obtain more information. The other
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




actions maybe appropriate, but more assessment is needed before the best intervention can be
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




chosen.

5. A patient who is paralyzed on the left side of the body after a stroke develops a pressure ulcer on the
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




left hip. Which nursing diagnosis is most appropriate?
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




a. Impaired physical mobility related to left-sided paralysis mn mn mn mn mn mn




b. Risk for impaired tissue integrity related to left-sided weakness
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




c. Impaired skin integrity related to altered circulation and pressure mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




d. Ineffective tissue perfusion related to inability to move independently mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




ANS: C m n




The patient‘s major problem is the impaired skin integrity as demonstrated by the presence of a
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




pressure ulcer. The nurse is able to treat the cause of altered circulation and pressure by frequently
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




repositioning the patient. Although left-sided weakness is a problem for the patient, the nurse
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




cannot treat the weakness. The ―risk for‖ diagnosis is not appropriate for this patient, who already
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




has impaired tissue integrity. The patient does have ineffective tissue perfusion, but the impaired
mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn mn




skin integrity diagnosis indicates more clearly what the health problem is.

ANS: A m n




This statement gives measurable data showing resolution of the problem of deficient fluid volume

that was identified in the nursing diagnosis statement. The other statements would not indicate that

whether the nursing interventions were appropriate. The other responses do not describe the

evaluation phase.
