actual diagnoses; and syndrome diagnoses.

CORRECT ANSWER-check for defining characteristics for the data clusters and
hypothesized diagnoses in order to choose the most accurate diagnoses and
delete those diagnoses that are not valid or accurate for the client

ANSWER-If the cue cluster data do not meet the defining characteristics, you can
rule out that particular diagnosis. If the cue cluster data do meet the defining
characteristics, the diagnosis should be verified with the client and other health
care professionals who are caring for the client. Tell the client what you perceive
the diagnosis to be.
