MULTIPLE CHOICE j




1. When caring for clients using evidence-informed practice, which of the following does the nurse
j j j j j j j j j j j j j




j use?
a. Clinical judgement based on experience j j j j




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




c. Thebest available evidence to guide clinical expertise
j j j j j j j




d. Evaluation of data showing that the client outcomes are met j j j j j j j j j




CORRECT ANSWER: j




C j




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




conscientious, and judicious consideration of the best available evidence to provide care. Four primary
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j




elements are: (a) clinical state, setting, and circumstances; (b) client preferences and actions; (c) best
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j




research evidence; and (d) health care resources. Clinical judgement based on the nurse’s clinical
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j




experience is part of EIP, but clinical decision making also should incorporate current research and
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j




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




substantiation for interventions. Evaluation of client outcomes is important, but interventions should
j j j j j j j j j j j j




be based on research from randomized control studies with a large number of subjects.

2. Which of the following best e x p l a i n s t h e n u r s e s ’ pr imary use of the nursing process when
N R I G B. C M
j j j j j j j j j j j j




providing care to clients? USNT O j j j
j j j




a. To explain nursing interventions to other health care professionals
j j j j j j j j




b. As a problem-solving tool to identify and treat clients’ health care needs
j j j j j j j j j j j




c. As a scientific-based process of diagnosing the client’s health care problems
j j j j j j j j j j




d. To establish nursing theory that incorporates the biopsychosocial nature of humans
j j j j j j j j j j




CORRECT ANSWER: B j j




The nursing process is an assertive problem-solving approach to the identification and treatment of
j j j j j j j j j j j j j




clients’ problems. Diagnosis is only one phase of the nursing process. The
j j j j j j j j j j j j




primary use of the nursing process is in client care, not to establish nursing theory or explain nursing
j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j j




interventions to other health care professionals.

turning schedule?
