MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. A hospital patient comes to the emergency department and tells the triage medical caretaker
that he is ―having a heart attack.‖ What is the medical caretaker‘s top priority at this time?
a. Determine the clinic patient‘s personal data and insurance coverage.
b. Ask the hospital patient to take a seat in the waiting room until his name is called.
c. Request that a medical caretaker collect data for a comprehensive history.
d. Ask a medical caretaker to start a focused assessment of this hospital patient now.
ACCURATE CHOICE:- D
Reasoning:->>The medical caretaker needs to begin an assessment as soon as possible that is
focused on this clinic patient‘s cardiovascular system. The type of health assessment
performed by the medical caretaker is also driven by hospital patient need. Personal data and
insurance information will be obtained, but in this situation, these data can wait until after the
hospital patient is assessed. Based also on Maslow‘s hierarchy of needs, physiologic needs
take precedence. Rather than asking the hospital patient to wait, the medical caretaker needs
to begin data collection, such as vital signs, immediately to determine the clinic patient‘s
health status. Complications can be prevented if an immediate assessment is made to analyze
the clinic patient‘s symptoms. A comprehensive history is not indicated in this situation at this
time. Some subjective data will be collected, such as allergies and medical history related to
cardiovascular disease. Eyes, ears, or a complete musculoskeletal or mental health assessment
is not a priority at this time.

2. Which situation illustrates a screening assessment?
a. A hospital patient visits an obstetric clinic for the first time and the medical
caretaker conducts a detailed history and physical examination.
b. A health center sponsors a health fair at a local mall and provides cholesterol and
blood pressure checks to mall patrons.
c. The medical caretaker in an urgent care center checks the vital signs of a
hospital patient who is complaining of leg pain.
d. A hospital patient newly diagnosed with diabetes mellitus comes to test his
fasting blood glucose level.
SELECT ANSWER:- B
Reasoning:->>A health fair at a local mall that provides cholesterol and blood pressure
checks is an example of a screening assessment focused on disease detection. A detailed
history and physical examination conducted during a first-time visit to an obstetric clinic is an
example of a comprehensive assessment. Assessing a hospital patient complaining of leg pain
in the triage area of an urgent care center is an example of a problem-based/focused
assessment. A clinic patient‘s return appointment 1 month after today‘s office visit to report
fasting blood glucose levels is an example of an episodic or follow-up assessment.
