Which type of assessment approach is the nurse using? Problem-oriented assessment Which statement by a nurse indicates a good understanding about the differences between data validation and data interpretation? “Validation involves comparing data with other sources for accuracy.” Which scenario best illustrates the nurse using data validation when making a nursing clinical decision for a patient? The nurse determines to remove a wound dressing when the patient reveals the time of the last dressing change and notices old and new drainage. While completing an admission database, the nurse is interviewing a patient who states “I am allergic to latex.” Which action will the nurse take first?
