Nursing Ignatavicius: Medical-Surgical Nursing, 10th Edition


MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. A New Nurse Is Working With A Preceptor On A Medical-Surgical Unit. The Preceptor
Advises TheNew Nurse That Which Is The Priority When Working As A Professional
Nurse?
a. Attending To Holistic Client Needs
b. Ensuring Client Safety
c. Not Making Medication Errors
d. Providing Client-Focused Care
ANS: B
All Actions Are Appropriate For The Professional Nurse. However, Ensuring Client Safety Is
ThePriority. Health Care Errors Have Been Widely Reported For 25 Years, Many Of Which
Result InClient Injury, Death, And Increased Health Care Costs. There Are Several National
And International Organizations That Have Either Recommended Or Mandated Safety
Initiatives.
Every Nurse Has The Responsibility To Guard The Client’s Safety. The Other Actions Are
Important For Quality Nursing, But They Are Not As Vital As Providing Safety. Not Making
Medication Errorsdoes Provide Safety, But Is Too Narrow In Scope To Be The Best Answer.

DIF: Understanding TOP: Integrated Process: NURSING Process:
Interventionkey: Client Safety
MSC: Client Needs Category: Safe And Effective Care Environment: Safety And Infection Control

2. A Nurse Is Orienting A New Client And Family To The Medical-Surgical Unit. What
InformationDoes The Nurse Provide To Best Help The Client Promote His Or Her Own
Safety?
a. Encourage The Client And Family To Be Active Partners.
b. Have The Client Monitor Hand Hygiene In Caregivers.
c. Offer The Family The Opportunity To Stay With Theclient.
d. Tell The Client To Always Wear His Or Her Armband.
ANS: A
Each Action Could Be Important For The Client Or Family To Perform. However,
Encouraging The Client To Be Active In His Or Her Health Care As A Safety Partner Is The
Most Critical. The Other Actions Are Very Limited In Scope And Do Not Provide The Broad
Protection That Being Active AndInvolved Does.

DIF: Understanding TOP: Integrated Process: Teaching/Learning
KEY: Client Safety
MSC: Client Needs Category: Safe And Effective Care Environment: Safety And Infection Control

3. A Nurse Is Caring For A Postoperative Client On The Surgical Unit. The Client’s Blood
Pressure Was 142/76 Mm Hg 30 Minutes Ago, And Now Is 88/50 Mm Hg. What Action
Would The NurseTake First?
a. Call The Rapid Response Team.
b. Document And Continue To Monitor.
c. Notify The Primary Health Provider
d. Repeat The Blood Pressure In 15 Minutes.
ANS: A
5

, The Purpose Of The Rapid Response Team (RRT) Is To Intervene When Clients Are
DeterioratingBefore They Suffer Either Respiratory Or Cardiac Arrest. Since The Client Has
Manifested A Significant Change, The Nurse Would Call The RRT. Changes In Blood
Pressure, Mental Status, Heart Rate, Temperature, Oxygen Saturation, And Last 2 Hours’
Urine Output Are Particularly Significant And Are Part Of The Modified Early Warning
System Guide. Documentation Is Vital, But The Nurse Must Do More Than Document. The
Primary Health Care Provider Would Be Notified, But This Is Not More Important Than
Calling The RRT. The Client’s Blood Pressure Would Be Reassessed Frequently, But The
Priority Is Getting The Rapid Care To The Client.

DIF: Applying TOP: Integrated Process: Communication And
DocumentationKEY: Rapid Response Team (RRT), Clinical Judgment
MSC: Client Needs Category: Physiological Integrity: Physiological Adaptation

4. A Nurse Wishes To Provide Client-Centered Care In All Interactions. Which Action By The
Nurse
Best Demonstrates This Concept?
a. Assesses For Cultural Influences Affecting Health Care.
b. Ensures That All The Client’s Basic Needs Are Met.
c. Tells The Client And Family About All Upcoming Tests.
d. Thoroughly Orients The Client And Family To Theroom.
ANS: A
Showing Respect For The Client And Family’s Preferences And Needs Is Essential To
Ensure A Holistic Or “Whole-Person” Approach To Care. By Assessing The Effect Of The
Client’s Culture OnHealth Care, This Nurse Is Practicing Client-Focused Care. Providing
For Basic Needs Does Not Demonstrate This Competence. Simply Telling The Client About
All Upcoming Tests Is Not Providing Empowering Education. Orienting The Client And
Family To The Room Is An ImportantSafety Measure, But Not Directly Related To
Demonstrating Client-Centered Care.

DIF: Understanding TOP: Integrated Process: Culture And Spirituality
KEY: Client-Centered Care, Culture MSC: Client Needs Category: Psychosocial Integrity

5. A Client Is Going To Be Admitted For A Scheduled Surgical Procedure. Which Action
Does TheNurse Explain Is The Most Important Thing The Client Can Do To Protect
Against Errors?
a. Bring A List Of All Medications And What They Are For.
b. Keep The Provider’s Phone Number By The Telephone.
c. Make Sure That All Providers Wash Hands Before Entering The Room.
d. Write Down The Name Of Each Caregiver Who Comes In The Room.
ANS: A
Medication Reconciliation Is A Formal Process In Which The Client’s Actual Current
MedicationsAre Compared To The Prescribed Medications At The Time Of Admission,
Transfer, Or Discharge. This National Client Safety Goal Is Important To Reduce
Medication Errors. The Client Would Not Have To Be Responsible For Providers Washing
Their Hands, And Even If The Client Does So, This Is Too Narrow To Be The Most
Important Action To Prevent Errors. Keeping The Provider’s Phone Number Nearby And
Documenting Everyone Who Enters The Room Also Do Not Guarantee Safety.

, 8. Which Action By The Nurse Working With A Client Best Demonstrates Respect For Autonomy?
a. Asks If The Client Has Questions Before Signing A Consent.
b. Gives The Client Accurate Information When Questioned.
c. Keeps The Promises Made To The Client And Family.
d. Treats The Client Fairly Compared To Otherclients.
ANS: A
Autonomy Is Self-Determination. The Client Would Make Decisions Regarding Care. When
The Nurse Obtains A Signature On The Consent Form, Assessing If The Client Still Has
Questions Is Vital,Because Without Full Information The Client Cannot Practice Autonomy.
Giving Accurate Information Is Practicing With Veracity. Keeping Promises Is Upholding
Fidelity. Treating The Client Fairly Is Providing Social Justice.

DIF: Applying TOP: Integrated Process: Caring KEY: Ethics, Autonomy
MSC: Client Needs Category: Safe And Effective Care Environment: Management Of
Care

9. A Nurse Asks A More Seasoned Colleague To Explain Best Practices When Communicating
With APerson From The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, And Questioning/Queer
(LGBTQ) Community. What Answer By The Faculty Is Most Accurate?
a. Avoid Embarrassing The Client By Asking Questions.
b. Don’t Make Assumptions About His Or Her Health Needs.
c. Most LGBTQ People Do Not Want To Share Information.
d. No Differences Exist In Communicating With This Population.

ANS: B
Many Members Of The LGBTQ Community Have Faced Discrimination From Health Care
Providers And May Be Reluctant To Seek Health Care. The Nurse Would Never Make
Assumptions About The Needs Of Members Of This Population. Rather, Respectful
Questions Are Appropriate. IfApproached With Sensitivity, The Client With Any Health
Care Need Is More Likely To Answer Honestly.

KEY: Health Care Disparities, LGBTQ MSC: Client Needs Category: Psychosocial Integrity

10. A Nurse Is Calling The On-Call Health Care Provider About A Client Who Had A
Hysterectomy 2Days Ago And Has Pain That Is Unrelieved By The Prescribed Opioid
Pain Medication. Which Statement Comprises The Background Portion Of The SBAR
Format Forcommunication?
a. “I Would Like You To Order A Different Pain Medication.”
b. “This Client Has Allergies To Morphine And Codeine.”
c. “Dr. Smith Doesn’t Like Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatorymeds.”
d. “This Client Had A Vaginal Hysterectomy 2 Days Ago.”
ANS: B
