, Chapter 01: Introduction to Medical-Surgical Nursing Practice in Canada
Tyerman: Lewis’s Medical-Surgical Nursing in Canada, 5th Edition


MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. The nurse is caring for a patient with a new diagnosis of pneumonia and explains to the
patient that together they will plan the patient’s care and set goals for discharge. The
patient asks, “How is that different from what the doctor does?” Which response by the
nurse is most appropriate?
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 data and communicating when
there are problems.”
c. “Nurses perform many of the procedures done by physicians, but nurses are here in
the hospital for a longer time than doctors.”
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 Canadian Nurses Association (CNA) definition of
nursing. Registered nurses are self-regulated health care professionals who work
autonomously and in collaboration with others. RNs enable individuals, families, groups,
communities and populations to achieve their optimal level of health. RNs coordinate
health care, deliver direct services, and support patients in their self-care decisions and
actions in situations of health, illness, injury, and disability in all stages of life. 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.

MSC: NCLEX: Safe and Effective Care Environment

2. When caring for patients using evidence-informed practice, which of the following does
the nurse use?
a. Clinical judgement 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 patient 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)
patient preferences and actions; (c) best research evidence, and (d) health care resources.
Clinical judgement 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 patient outcomes is important, but interventions should be
based on research from randomized control studies with a large number of subjects.
