ATI case study questions and answers withsolutions 2024
Pain Management: What elements are included in a pain assessment? - ANSWER In order to evaluate
pain thoroughly my nursing skills would include the PQRST method. P (Provocation/Palliation)- What
were you doing when the pain started? What caused it? What seems to trigger the pain? What relieves
it? Q (Quality)-what does the pain feel like? Is it sharp, dull, tingling? R (Region)-Is the pain felt all over or
in one specific area? Does the pain travel around? S (Severe)- on a pain scale from 0-10 with 0 being no
pain, where would you rate the pain? How long does the pain last? T (Timing)- How often does it occur?
When it does come to you is it sudden or gradual?
Therapeutic Communication: What nontherapeutic communication styles did the nurse use in this
scenario? What therapeutic communication styles could the nurse have used instead? In your response,
speak directly to the client. - ANSWER In terms of nontherapeutic communication styles, the nurse gave
personal advice and false reassurance, asked why questions, and focused on self, rather than the client.
As a result, this lead to the failure to remain client centered. The therapeutic communication styles that
the nurse could have used which are active listening, silence, and exploration; providing leads; and
asking focused questions. For my response to the client, I would ask the patient to elaborate more about
his feeling on his mother's passing. "Mr. Tolito, tell me more about how you feel."
Look -Alike and Sound-Alike Medications: The nurse is performing the first check for safe medication
administration prior to administering metronidazole to Ms. Winder. He notes that the label is incorrect.
What error did the nurse discover? What steps should the nurse take to minimize the risk of making a
medication error? Watch the video and record your response to the question using one of the following
recording options. - ANSWER The error that the nurse discovered was the medication ordered did not
match with what was sent from the pharmacy. The steps that nurse should take to minimize the risk of
medication error include the right patient, right drug, right dose, right route, right time, right
assessment, right documentation, patient's right to education, right evaluation, and patient's right to
refuse.
Informatics and Nursing: How are safety and cost affected by the use of informatics at the point of care?
Give two to three specific examples. Watch the video and record your response to the question using
one of the following recording options. - ANSWER By using informatics, nurses and other members of the
healthcare team are able to efficiently and effectively in achieving the best possible care. Safety and cost
affect the use of informatics in a number of ways. Examples include easier access in retrieving patient's
data, collecting pertinent information in decision making, and both the provider and nurse can review
the patient's information at the same time.
