This document provides the complete test bank for all 49 chapters of Understanding Medical-Surgical Nursing, 6th Edition by Linda S. Williams and Paula D. Hopper. It includes multiple-choice questions, true/false items, and detailed answer keys, covering every major concept in medical-surgical nursing. Topics span patient care, disease processes, pharmacology, and clinical decision-making, making it a comprehensive tool for exam preparation and classroom review. MULTIPLE CHOICE Chapter 1 Critical Thinking and the Nursing Process 1. The nurse is caring for a group of patients on a medical-surgical unit. Which patient should the licensed practical nurse/licensed vocational nurse (LPN/LVN) assess first? 1. A patient with a blood glucose of 42 mg/dL 2. A patient who reports a pain level of 2 3. A patient who has just received a diagnosis of cancer 4. A patient who has a respiratory rate of 22 ANS: 1 1 This patient has a dangerously low blood glucose level and requires immediate intervention. 2 This patient will need to be assessed, but is not as high a priority. 3 According to Maslow, psychosocial needs are not as high of a priority as physiological needs. 4 A respiratory rate of 22 is within normal range. PTS: 1 CON: Patient-Centered Care 2. The LPN/LVN enters the room of a patient who is angry and yells, ―I asked 5 minutes ago for my pain medication. I’m going to call the CEO of the hospital if you don’t get it for me now.‖ Which statement by the nurse demonstrates intellectual empathy? 1. ―We are short-staffed today, so it will take me longer to meet your needs.‖ 2. ―I am sorry you had to wait, I know you must be in a lot of pain.‖ 3. ―I had another patient who had severe pain, and I had to get to them first.‖ 4. ―I will get you the number for the CEO, but he is aware of how busy we are.‖ ANS: 2 Feedback 1 This statement does not consider an individual’s situation. 2 This statement demonstrates intellectual empathy by considering this patient’s situation and will likely alleviate the patient’s anger. 3 This statement does not consider a patient’s situation and does not demonstrate intellectual empathy. 4 This statement addresses the patient’s statement of wanting to call the CEO, but does not demonstrate intellectual empathy by considering the patient’s situation. PTS: 1 CON: Communication 3. The nurse is collecting data on a patient. Which data are described as subjective? 1. Respiratory rate of 26 per minute 2. Patient report of shortness of breath 3. Coarse lung sounds bilaterally 4. Cough producing green sputum ANS: 2 Chapter: Chapter 1 Critical Thinking and the Nursing Process Objective: 5. Differentiate between objective and subjective data. Page: 4 Heading: Subjective Data Integrated Process: Communication and Documentation Client Need: Communication and Documentation Cognitive Level: Application (Applying) Concept: Communication Difficulty: Moderate Feedback 1 Respiratory rate of 26 per minute is an example of objective data. 2 A patient reporting symptoms to the nurse is an example of subjective data. 3 Coarse lung sounds is an example of objective data. 4 A productive cough is an example of objective data. PTS: 1 CON: Communication 4. A patient with a newly fractured femur reports a pain level of 8/10 and analgesic medication is not due for another 50 minutes. Which action should the nurse take first? 1. Reposition the patient. 2. Give the medication in 30 minutes. 3. Notify the registered nurse (RN) or physician. 4.
