b. Document the sound exactly as it was heard.
c. Validate the data by asking a coworker to listen to the breath sounds.
d. Assess again in 20 minutes to note whether the sound is still present.
ANS: C
When unsure of a sound heard while listening to a patient‘s breath sounds, the nurse validates
the data to ensure accuracy. If the nurse has less experience in an area, then they would ask an
expert to listen.

MSC: Client Needs: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Management of Care
5. Which approach do novice nurses utilize when making decisions?
a. Intuition
b. Clear-cut rules

c. Life-long problem-solving approach to clinical decision making using best
available evidence
d. The patient‘s own preferences are not important in EIP
ANS: C
, EIP is more than the use of best practice techniques to treat patients; it can be defined as a
paradigm and lifelong problem-solving approach to clinical decision making that involves the
conscientious use of the best available evidence (including a systematic search for and critical
appraisal of the most relevant evidence to answer a clinical question) with one‘s own clinical
expertise and patient values and preferences to improve outcomes for individuals, groups,
communities, and systems. EIP is more than simply using the best practice techniques to treat
patients, and questioning tradition is important when no compelling and supportive research
evidence exists.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Applying (Application)
MSC: Client Needs: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Management of Care
8. Which example illustrates a first-level priority problem?
a. Postoperative pain
b. Newly diagnosed diabetes needing diabetic teaching
c. Small laceration on the sole of the foot
d. Shortness of breath and respiratory distress
ANS: D
First-level priority problems are those that are emergent, life-threatening, and immediate (e.g.,
establishing an airway, supporting breathing, maintaining circulation, monitoring abnormal
vital signs) (see Table 1.1 – Identifying Immediate Priorities).
DIF: Cognitive Level: Understanding (Comprehension)
MSC: Client Needs: Safe and Effective Care Environment: Management of Care
9. Which critical thinking skill recognizes relationships among the data?
a. Validation
b. Clustering related cues

b. Medical

An accurate nursing diagnosis provides the basis for the selection of nursing interventions to
achieve outcomes for which the nurse is accountable. The other items do not contribute to the
development of appropriate nursing interventions.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Remembering
