a. Anxiety

c. Anxiety related to anxious feelings about drug therapy, as evidenced by statements

CORRECT ANS: D VE V E
Formulation of nursing diagnoses is usually a three-step process. ―Anxiety‖ is missing the
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
―related to‖ and ―as evidenced by‖ portions of defining characteristics. ―Anxiety related to
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
new drug therapy‖ is missing the ―as evidenced by‖ portion of defining characteristics. The s
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
tatement beginning ―Anxiety related to anxious feelings‖ is incorrect because the ―related to‖
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
section is simply a restatement of the problem ―anxiety,‖ not a separate factor related to the re

, 6. The medication order reads, ―Give ondansetron (Zofran) 4 mg, 30 minutes before beginning
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
chemotherapy to prevent nausea.‖ The RN notes that the route is missing from the order.
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
What is the RN‘s best action? VE VE VE VE VE
a. Give the medication intravenously because the client might vomit.
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
b. Give the medication orally because the tablets are available in 4-mg doses.
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
c. Contact the prescriber to clarify the route of the medication ordered.VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
d. Hold the medication until the prescriber returns to make rounds.
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
CORRECT ANS: C VE V E
A complete medication order includes the route of administration. If a medication order does n
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
ot include the route, the RN must ask the prescriber to clarify it. The intravenous and oral rout
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
es are not interchangeable. Holding the medication until the prescriber returns would mean tha
VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE VE
t the client would not receive a needed medication.

a. The client‘s ability to swallow VE VE VE VE
b. The client‘s height VE VE
c. The client‘s last meal VE VE VE

The RN must consider specific pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic drug properties that may

be affected by the timing of the last meal. The client‘s ability to swallow, height, and allergies ar
