Lewis Ch.1 -Test 1 Med Surg EXAM 2022\2023


1. The nurse completes an admission database and explains that the plan


of care and discharge goals will be developed with the patient's input. The


patient states, "How is this different from what the doctor does?" Which


response would be most appropriate for the nurse to make?




a. "The role of the nurse is to administer medications and other


treatments prescribed by your doctor."


b. "The nurse's job is to help the doctor by collecting information and


communicating any problems that occur."


c. "Nurses perform many of the same procedures as the doctor, but


nurses are with the patients for a longer time than the doctor."

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


you to develop an individualized plan to maintain your health.": ANS: D


This response is consistent with the American Nurses Association (ANA)


definition of nursing, which describes the role of nurses in promoting health. The


other responses describe some of the dependent and collaborative functions of


the nursing role but do not accurately describe the nurse's role in the health care


system.


2. The nurse describes to a student nurse how to use evidence-based


practice guidelines when caring for patients. Which statement, if made by


the nurse, would be the most accurate?




a. "Inferences from clinical research studies are used as a guide."


b. "Patient care is based on clinical judgment, experience, and traditions."

c. "Data are evaluated to show that the patient outcomes are consistently


met."


d. "Recommendations are based on research, clinical expertise, and


patient preferences.": ANS: D


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


combined with clinician expertise. Clinical judgment based on the nurse's clinical


experience is part of EBP, but clinical decision making should also incorporate


current research and research-based guidelines. Evaluation of patient outcomes


is important, but interventions should be based on research from randomized


control studies with a large number of subjects.


3. The nurse teaches a student nurse about how to apply the nursing


process when providing patient care. Which statement, if made by the


student nurse, indicates that teaching was successful?
