, Chapter 01: The Nursing Process and Drug Therapy

MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. The RN is writing a nursing diagnosis for a plan of care for a client who has been newly
diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Which statement reflects the correct format for a nursing
diagnosis?
a. Anxiety
b. Anxiety related to new drug therapy
c. Anxiety related to anxious feelings about drug therapy, as evidenced by statements
such as ―I‘m upset about having to test my blood sugars.‖
d. Anxiety related to new drug therapy, as evidenced by statements such as
―I‘m upset about having to test my blood sugars.‖
CORRECT ANS: D
Formulation of nursing diagnoses is usually a three-step process. ―Anxiety‖ is missing the
―related to‖ and ―as evidenced by‖ portions of defining characteristics. ―Anxiety related to
new drug therapy‖ is missing the ―as evidenced by‖ portion of defining characteristics. The
statement beginning ―Anxiety related to anxious feelings‖ is incorrect because the ―related to‖
section is simply a restatement of the problem ―anxiety,‖ not a separate factor related to the
response.

2. The client is to receive oral guaifenesin (Mucinex) twice a day. Today, the RN was busy and
gave the medication 2 hours after the scheduled dose was due. What type of problem does this
represent?
a. ―Right time‖
b. ―Right dose‖
c. ―Right route‖
d. ―Right medication‖
CORRECT ANS: A
―Right time‖ is correct because the medication was given more than 30 minutes after the
scheduled dose was due. ―Dose‖ is incorrect because the dose is not related to the time the
medication administration is scheduled. ―Route‖ is incorrect because the route is not affected.
―Medication‖ is incorrect because the medication ordered will not change.

3. The RN has been monitoring the client‘s progress on a new drug regimen since the first
dose and documenting the client‘s therapeutic response to the medication. Which phase of the
nursing process do these actions illustrate?
a. Nursing diagnosis


b. Planning
c. Implementation
d. Evaluation
CORRECT ANS: D
Monitoring the client‘s progress, including the client‘s response to the medication, is part of
the evaluation phase. Planning, implementation, and nursing diagnosis are not illustrated by
this example.

4. The RN is assigned to a client who is newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Which
statement best illustrates an outcome criterion for this client?
a. The client will follow instructions.
b. The client will not experience complications.
c. The client will adhere to the new insulin treatment regimen.
d. The client will demonstrate correct blood glucose testing technique.

CORRECT ANS: D
―Demonstrating correct blood glucose testing technique‖ is a specific and measurable outcome
criterion. ―Following instructions‖ and ―not experiencing complications‖ are not specific
criteria.
―Adhering to new regimen‖ would be difficult to measure.

5. Which activity best reflects the implementation phase of the nursing process for the client
who is newly diagnosed with hypertension?
a. Providing education on keeping a journal of blood pressure readings
b. Setting goals and outcome criteria with the client‘s input
c. Recording a drug history regarding over-the-counter medications used at home
d. Formulating nursing diagnoses regarding deficient knowledge related to the
new treatment regimen
CORRECT ANS: A
Education is an intervention that occurs during the implementation phase. Setting goals and
outcomes reflects the planning phase. Recording a drug history reflects the assessment
phase. Formulating nursing diagnoses reflects analysis of data as part of planning.

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

7. When the RN considers the timing of a drug dose, which factor is appropriate to consider
when deciding when to give a drug?
a. The client‘s ability to swallow
b. The client‘s height
c. The client‘s last meal
d. The client‘s allergies
CORRECT ANS: C
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 are
not factors to consider regarding the timing of the drug‘s administration.

8. The RN is performing an assessment of a newly admitted client. Which is an example of
subjective data?
a. Blood pressure 158/96 mm Hg
b. Weight 255 pounds
c. The client reports that he uses the herbal product ginkgo.
d. The client‘s laboratory work includes a complete blood count and urinalysis.
CORRECT ANS: C
Subjective data include information shared through the spoken word by any reliable source, such
as the client. Objective data may be defined as any information gathered through the senses or
that which is seen, heard, felt, or smelled. A client‘s blood pressure, weight, and laboratory tests
are all examples of objective data.
